Objective: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a systemic small-vessel vasculitis characterized by asthma, hypereosinophilia and ANCA positivity in 40% of patients. Renal involvement is rare and poorly described, leading to this renal biopsy-proven based study in a large EGPA cohort.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective multicentre study including patients fulfilling the 1990 ACR criteria and/or the 2012 revised Chapel Hill Consensus Conference criteria for EGPA and/or the modified criteria of the MIRRA trial, with biopsy-proven nephropathy.

Purpose: Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are hematological disorders characterized by clonal expansion of one or more medullary lines. Renal complications are rare, chiefly as acute renal failure. Glomerular involvement is exceptional

Methods: We report on a retrospective multicenter case series of eight patients who presented with a glomerulopathy (GP) associated with MPN RESULTS: All GP were revealed by a major proteinuria frequently associated with nephrotic syndrome and oedema.
