This case report represents the first suspected case of light chain deposition disease relapse associated with mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. The 75-year-old female patient of Greek ethnicity was admitted to the clinic for the investigation of worsening renal function detected on routine lab examinations, two weeks after she received the second dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine (mRNA-1273). Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and anemia were the most notable findings. She had a history of LCDD, which had remained stable for four years. Serum protein immunofixation showed monoclonal kappa zones, and a bone marrow biopsy revealed 5% plasma cell infiltration. These, along with other investigations, established the diagnosis of LCDD recurrence. The patient was started on chemotherapy, which improved her immunological profile, but not her renal function. The patient has remained on hemodialysis since. The association between mRNA vaccinations and LCDD relapse may be grounds for investigations into the pathophysiology of MGRS, given the patient's previous long-term remission. This case report is not intended to directly inform changes in clinical practice. We must stress the importance of following all standardized vaccination protocols, especially in immunocompromised patients.
