ABSTRACT
We experienced three cases of a fever and subsequent severe, prolonged gross hematuria after COVID-19 vaccination. A kidney biopsy revealed immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, and electron microscopy showed two types of podocytopathy (podocyte damage) loss of foot processes from the glomerular basement membrane and foot process effacement. Mesangial interposition was also present in cases 1 and 3 but not in case 2. Podocytopathy is known to be a cause of proteinuria; however, the reactions to COVID-19 vaccination described here suggest that it may also be related to hematuria in IgA nephropathy.
