Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) is a rare glomerular disease with various etiologies, including idiopathic cases and associations with autoimmune diseases, neoplasms, and viral infections, such as Hepatitis C. We present a case of a patient who developed acute kidney injury (AKI) with atypical clinical features. A subsequent renal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of FGN, with distinct immunofluorescence staining for DNAJB9. The patient tested positive for Hepatitis C antibodies with an undetectable viral load, indicating a past infection that had self-cleared. This finding prompted further investigation of the association between Hepatitis C and the development of FGN.
