Coincidence Or Connection? A Patient With Concurrent Lane Hamilton Syndrome And Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy

Lane Hamilton Syndrome is the rare association of idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis and Celiac Disease. The definitive pathophysiologic link is unknown, but the syndrome has been described as co-occurring along with other diseases. We describe the first reported case of Lane Hamilton Syndrome and idiopathic membranous nephropathy. We also hypothesize the possibility of an immune-mediated connection between the pathologies and propose a potential link of the phospholipase A2 receptor.
