A case of disseminated superficial actinic poroLeratosis affecting 47 years old, house wife, who has been suffering from multiple dark-brownish keratotic papules on the sun-light exposed parts especially face, forearm and dorsa of the both hands with mild itching sensation, is presented. The skin lesions developed about two years ago insidiously and increased size and numberes of the lesion. Her family background suggests autosomal dominant inheritance.

Collapsing glomerulopathy is recently described as the disease which causes rapidly progressive renal failure. Clinically, the disease starts with constitutional symptoms, and then nephrotic syndrome with marked proteinuria and hypertension follows. Eventually the disease rapidly progresses to the ESRD within several weeks to months. Its typical renal biopsy findings are extensive glomerular capillary collapse, visceral epithelial cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia, and variable degree of tubulointerstitial inflammation. Such findings closely resemble those of HIV associated nephropathy(HIVAN) except endothelial inclusion body in HIVAN. Here we present, for the first time in Korea, a 16 yrs-old female patient with ESRD in a normal sized kidney. Nephrotic syndrome and hypertension were also accompanied. Serologically, she had no evidence of HIV infection. Though her symptom duration was somewhat shorter than that previously reported, her renal biopsy findings were those of collapsing glomerulopathy as previously described. Her renal function did not return to normal, and now she is on regular hemodialysis, waiting for renal transplantation.
