FLORIT, Enrique A. et al. Membranous glomerulonephritis, psoriasis and etanercept: A chance or causal association?. []. , 32, 2, pp.228-232. ISSN 1989-2284.

Psoriasis is a cutaneous disease with systemic involvement. Tisular damage is consider to be immunomediated, and actually is being effectively treated with Etanercept. Kidney damage of this patological condition is not completely clarified in the literature. We present a case of Membranous Nephropathy with C1q deposits that subsequently developed psoriasis. In this article we make a review of a possible association between these diseases and the respose to that biological molecule.
