Purpose: Minimal change disease (MCD) is considered a relatively benign glomerulopathy, as it rarely progresses to end-stage kidney disease. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics and outcomes of adults with MCD and identify potential risk factors for relapse. Patients & Methods: We retrospectively studied a cohort of adults with biopsy-proven MCD in terms of clinical features and treatment outcomes. Baseline characteristics and outcomes were recorded and predictors of relapse were analyzed using logistic regression multivariate analysis. Results: 59 patients with adult-onset primary MCD with nephrotic syndrome were included. Mean serum creatinine at diagnosis was 0.8 mg/dL (±2.5) and estimated GFR (eGFR) was 87 mL/min/1.73 m2 (±29.5). Mean serum albumin was 2.5 g/dL (±0.8) and 24 h proteinuria 6.8 g (±3.7). Microscopic hematuria was detected in 35 (58.5%) patients. 42 patients received prednisone alone, six patients received prednisone plus cyclophosphamide, five patients received prednisone plus cyclosporine, one patient received prednisone plus rituximab and five patients did not receive immunosuppression at all since they achieved spontaneous remission. During a mean follow up time of 34.7(22.1) months, 46.1% of patients experienced at least one episode of relapse. The mean age of patients who did not experience a relapse was significantly higher than that of patients who relapsed while relapsers had a significantly longer duration of 24 h proteinuria prior to biopsy compared to non-relapsers. Overall, 10% of patients experienced acute kidney injury while the mean eGFR at the end was 82 mL/min/1.73 m2 (±29.1) and one patient ended up in chronic dialysis. Overall, the proportion of non-relapsers, who experienced acute kidney injury (17%) was significantly higher than the one recorded among relapsers (0%).Conclusion: In this series of patients, almost 46% of adult-onset nephrotic MCD patients experienced a relapse, although their renal progression was rare. Younger onset age was an independent risk factor for relapse in adult-onset MCD patients.

Fluid Removal

Oliguric acute kidney injury (AKI) with minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) has long been recognized. Several mechanisms such as hypovolemia due to hypoalbuminemia and the nephrosarca hypothesis have been proposed. However, the precise mechanism by which MCNS causes AKI has not been fully elucidated. Herein, we describe an elderly patient with AKI caused by MCNS who fully recovered after aggressive volume withdrawal by hemodialysis and administration of a glucocorticoid. A 75-year-old woman presented with diarrhea and oliguria, and laboratory examination revealed nephrotic syndrome (NS) and severe azotemia. Fluid administration had no effect on renal dysfunction, and hemodialysis was initiated. Her renal function improved upon aggressive fluid removal through hemodialysis. Renal pathological findings revealed minimal change disease with faint mesangial deposits of IgA. After administration of methylprednisolone pulse therapy followed by oral prednisolone, she achieved complete remission from NS. The clinical course of this case supports the nephrosarca hypothesis regarding the mechanism of AKI caused by MCNS. Furthermore, appropriate fluid management and kidney biopsy are also important in elderly patients with AKI caused by NS.
