Resumen

There is no specific treatment for proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal IgG deposits (PGNMID), a disease that is very rare in the pediatric population.

We report the case of a 15-year-old boy who presented with mildly reduced kidney function and nephrotic syndrome.

Kidney biopsy revealed PGNMID with monoclonal deposits of IgG3 with kappa light chain restriction.

Flow cytometry showed a significant CD38 plasma cell population in the peripheral blood in the absence of other signs of hematological malignancy.

The patient was treated with a 6-month course of daratumumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD38.

There was a significant reduction in proteinuria and normalization of kidney function.

Based on positive experience with adults, daratumumab should also be studied in children with PGNMID.
