[A case of thrombotic microangiopathy with glomerular subendothelial IgA deposition due to bevacizumab].

Bevacizumab, an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor, is approved for the treatment of various cancers, but the incidence of proteinuria as a side effect has been reported to be 2-64%. We report a case of renal impairment due to thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) accompanied with glomerular subendothelial deposition of IgA resulting from bevacizumab administration. A 57-year-old female with advanced breast cancer, to whom bevacizumab had been administered from October 2012, developed proteinuria and epithelial casts in her urine about a month later.
