description Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a complex inflammatory lung disorder complicating bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis. Although the condition responds to treatment with glucocorticoids and antifungal drugs, lack of timely recognition, and inadequate treatment of ABPA can lead to progressive lung damage. Uncommonly, long standing inflammation and bronchiectasis can also lead to the development of secondary amyloidosis. Herein, we report a case of ABPA, which presented as nephrotic syndrome and progressed rapidly to end-stage renal disease.
