["Dense deposits" glomerulonephritis: description of a case].

The authors report a case of "dense deposits" glomerulonephritis in a girl who showed the first symptoms of asintomatic microhematuria at the age of 3 years during an ambulatorial examination which had been requested from her family doctor. After 1 year and 10 months the girl has been hospitalized and during her stay in the hospital it appeared that she still suffered of microhematuria with very low levels of serum complement. Being these results the same after the various check-ups made after her dismission from the hospital it has been decided to execute a renal biopsy, comprehending also the examination with an electronic microscopy which showed intramembranous "dense deposits" glomerulonephritis. In literature no similar cases under 4 years of age are reported.
