TI  - Light Chain Glomerulopathy Causing Kidney Failure in Renal Cell Carcinoma.

AB  - Light chain deposition disease (LCDD) is a rare cause of kidney failure. It is 
      associated with multiple myeloma and is diagnosed by the evaluation of serum and 
      urine free light chains. Patients who are diagnosed with this disease often 
      develop rapidly progressive renal failure. To our knowledge, it does not have any 
      association with other malignancies aside from multiple myeloma. We present a 
      case that highlights a novel association between renal cell carcinoma and light 
      chain-mediated renal disease. Our patient was admitted due to acute renal failure 
      and underwent a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation with an eventual diagnosis of 
      light chain glomerulopathy in the setting of metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
