Abstract
IgA-dominant GN with cryoglobulinemic features is an uncommon but severe form of glomerular injury in patients with staphylococcal infections. Four of 5 patients had crescentic glomerular injuries, all of whom required hemodialysis at last follow-up. Patients with IgA-dominant GN with features of cryoglobulinemia should be evaluated for active staphylococcal infection.
