AbstractReversible acute renal failure is a rare complication of IgA nephropathy. The authors report a patient with IgA nephropathy who developed acute renal failure after an episode of gross haematuria. Renal biopsy revealed extensive acute tubular damage and red blood cell casts. His renal failure recovered spontaneously without specific treatment. The clinical and pathological features of this IgA nephropathy complication are discussed.
