<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> <i>Opisthorchis viverrini</i> (OV) is a major cause of infection in Southeast Asia. Previous studies in mouse models have shown that OV infection can contribute to immune-complex glomerulonephritis (GN). However, OV infection in human kidney tissue has never been demonstrated. Herein, we evaluated the association of OV infection with biopsy-proven glomerular disease. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> This study was performed in adult patients who underwent kidney biopsy between July 2016 and February 2017. All kidney tissue samples were processed using the standard techniques for renal pathological diagnoses and immunohistochemistry techniques to detect OV antigen. Pre-implanted donor kidney tissue samples were used as controls. The participants were also assessed for OV infection by serum OV immunoglobulin G antibody (Ab) levels and/or presence of OV eggs in stool. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Forty-three renal tissue samples from glomerular disease patients and 50 from transplant donors were included in the study. Mean age in the GN group was 41.7 ± 15.9 years, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 70.65 ± 36.61 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup>, and median proteinuria was 3.17 (1.70–4.95) g/day. Lupus nephritis (LN) was the most common diagnosis (32.6%), followed by IgA nephropathy (23.3%), IgM nephropathy (18.6%), and primary membranous nephropathy (MN; 7%). The OV antigen was observed in kidney tissue from patients with IgA nephropathy, LN, primary MN, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and IgM nephropathy. By contrast, no OV antigen was detected in tissue samples from the control group. The presence of OV antigens was observed in glomerular endothelial cells, mesangial cells, tubular cells, and peritubular capillaries. The odds ratio of positive serum OV Ab to predict the presence of OV antigen in kidney tissues was 4.47 (<i>p</i> = 0.057), and there was a negative correlation between levels of serum OV Ab and eGFR (<i>r</i> = −0.31, <i>p</i> = 0.04). <b><i>Discussion/Conclusion:</i></b> This is the first study to demonstrate the presence of OV antigen in human kidney tissue, which indicates that OV infection may be associated with biopsy-proven glomerular diseases.
