Abstract
Agnogenic myeloid metaplasia (AMM), a myeloproliferative disorder of c lonal origin, can affect the kidneys via several mechanisms. Associate d disorders include asymptomatic interstitial extramedullary hematopoi esis, obstructive uropathy and nephrolithiasis. Currently, there are n o descriptions of the nephrotic syndrome associated with AMM. We prese nt a case of AMM associated with the nephrotic syndrome, a mesangial p roliferative glomerular lesion and extramedullary hematopoiesis.
