Abstract
A 54 year old male patient was admitted with advanced renal failure of recent onset. Serology was noncontributory. Renal biopsy showed collapsing glomerulopathy with interstitial fibrosis. Bone marrow examination confirmed the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. With chemotherapy multiple myeloma went into remission. However he continued to remain dialysis dependent and a repeat kidney biopsy showed progression to endstage renal disease.
