We report the first case of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis in a patient with chronic adrenal insufficiency due to autoimmune adrenalitis. In addition, this patient developed extrinsic asthma. The pathogenic implications of autoimmune adrenalitis with a long lasting hypocortisolemic state and the appearance of immunologically mediated diseases are discussed.
