Abstract
Renal involvement is rare in patients with type III cryoglobulinemia. We report a case of renal cortical necrosis in a patient with type III cryoglobulinemia. Renal function improved partially after treatment with plasma exchange, steroids, and cyclophosphamide. Renal magnetic resonance imaging was a valuable tool in the evaluation of the extent of renal cortical necrosis and improvement in renal vascularization after treatment.
