Abstract
Anderson-Fabry disease is a rare inherited X-linked lysosomal storage disease caused by deficiency
of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. Hereby we report a 39 year old male that presented with
proteinuria and edema. Histopathologic, immunofluorescence and ultrastractural examination of
renal tissue were in favor of Fabry disease in associate with IgA nephropathy. Fabry’s disease
associated with IgA nephropathy apparently is extremely rare, and the present case is among few
reported cases in literature.
