A 62-year-old male patient, presented with edema in both lower limbs and foam urine, had a history of "lung malignant tumor with brain and lymph node metastasis". The increase of IgG4 and decrease of glomerular filtration rate were detected at admission, and the pathological consideration of renal biopsy was membranous nephropathy with IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis.
