Abstract: There is increasing evidence that lipid accumulation in cells and tissues, a process known as lipotoxicity, can lead to dysfunction in multiple organs. Lipid accumulation has also been observed in the kidneys, resulting in glomerular lipidosis. In this report, we highlight a case of a 50-year-old gentleman who developed post-transplant glomerular lipidosis, and accordingly, we explore the treatment options used in his case based on the available literature.
