BACKGROUND: C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) is a rare form of glomerulopathy that is characterized by predominant C3 deposits. Eculizumab, a humanized monoclonal C5 antibody, has recently emerged as a treatment option for C3GN. We report a C3GN patient successfully treated with eculizumab.CASE DIAGNOSI

C3 glomerulopathy describes a spectrum of disorders with glomerular pathology associated with C3 cleavage product deposition and with defective complement action and regulation (Fakhouri et al., 2010; Sethi et al., 2012b). Kidney biopsies from these patients show glomerular accumulation or depositio
