• A 70-year old woman, known case of von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis presented with nephrotic syndrome and mild azotemia. Renal biopsy revealed membranous nephropathy. After ruling out secondary causes of membranous nephropathy, a possible coexistence of von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis and membranous nephropathy were thought of. This association has rarely been reported.
