Abstract

This report concerns a 9-year-old boy who was diagnosed with atypical type II membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and later proved to have juvenile acute nonproliferative glomerulitis (JANG). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the long-term clinical and pathological follow-up of JANG.
