Abstract

Immunotactoid glomerulopathy (ITG) is a rare form of glomerular disease. It is characterized by organized, dense immunoglobulin deposits in the glomerulus, impairing glomerular function and filtration. The prognosis tends to be poor, and the majority of patients develop end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Here, we present a case of a young male with no prior medical history who presented with anasarca. His presentation was initially thought to be due to a new diagnosis of heart failure with a decreased ejection fraction. However, significant proteinuria led to a diagnosis of ITG.
