Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)-associated membranous nephropathy is an important cause of nephrotic syndrome that can lead to a variety of systemic manifestations. Chylous ascites and bilateral renal vein thrombosis are rare manifestations in adult nephrotic syndrome, and there have been no reported cases demonstrating both chylous ascites and bilateral renal vein thrombosis in patients with PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy. Here, we report the first case of PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy complicated by renal vein thrombosis and chylous ascites successfully treated with anticoagulation and rituximab.
