Abstract

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, in the presence of myeloid bodies, has been reported in Fabry disease (FD). In this case, we excluded the diagnosis of FD by demonstrating the absence of mutation in the α-galactosidase A(GLA)gene. Our patient also denied any history of use of cationic amphiphilic drugs. Interestingly, we identified a novel missense mutation for Coenzyme Q2(COQ2) , which is known to cause COQ2 mutation-associated nephropathy. We also found heteromorphic mitochondria and good treatment response in our patient following coenzyme Q10 supplementation. In light of our findings, our patient was diagnosed with COQ2 nephropathy and IgA nephropathy. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of COQ2 nephropathy with pathologic manifestations of myeloid bodies in podocytes.
