Minimal-change nephrotic syndrome associated with systemic lupus erythematosus.
A case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) associated with minimal-change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) is described. A 41-year-old woman with SLE presented with symptoms of nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy revealed minor glomerular abnormalities without the deposition of immune complexes. The initial heavy proteinuria promptly decreased after the prednisolone dosage was increased and disappeared...
متن کاملMinimal change disease: A case report of an unusual relationship.
Kidney injury associated with lymphoproliferative disorders is rare, and the exact pathogenetic mechanisms behind it are still poorly understood. Glomerular involvement presenting as a nephrotic syndrome has been reported, usually secondary to membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. We report a case of a 63-year-old male who presented with bilateral leg swelling due to nephrotic syndrome and ...
متن کاملCalcium and Vitamin D Metabolism in Pediatric Nephrotic Syndrome; An Update on the Existing Literature
Minimal Change Disease (MCD) is the leading cause of childhood Nephrotic Syndrome (NS). Therefore in pediatrics nephrotic syndrome, most children beyond the first year of life will be treated with corticosteroids without an initial biopsy. Children with NS often display a number of calcium homeostasis disturbances causing abnormal bone histology, including hypocalcemia, reduced serum vitamin D...
متن کاملRenal sodium handling in minimal change nephrotic syndrome.
Renal sodium handling was studied in 23 children at three different stages of the minimal change nephrotic syndrome--the oedema forming state, proteinuric steady state, and remission. Clearances of inulin and para-aminohippuric acid and urinary sodium excretion were determined basally, after intravenous infusion of isotonic saline and hyperoncotic albumin, and after furosemide injection. Absolu...
متن کاملProfound urinary protein loss and acute renal failure caused by cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor.
Cumulative evidence has shown that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can induce acute renal failure and nephrotic-range proteinuria. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors have less nephrotoxicity; however, recent data indicate that they may cause the same renal problems as NSAIDs do. Herein, we present a case of celecoxib-associated minimal change disease (MCD) with profound urinary p...
