Minimal change disease (MCD) merupakan penyebab sindrom nefrotik pada 10% -15% orang dewasa. Hiperseluleritas ringan mesangial dapat ditemukan tapi jarang pada pasien MCD (3% sampai 5%). Ditemukanya hyperseluleritas mesangial pada MCD dapat berkorelasi dengan peningkatan resistensi terhadap terapi kortikosteroid, dan merupakan langkah perantara dalam kasus evolusi (perkembangan) MCD ke fokal segmented gromelurosclerosis (FSGS). Telah dilaporkan seorang perempuan 13 tahun dengan keluhan bengkak pada kelopak mata, tangan dan kaki. Pada pasien telah dilakukan pemeriksaan laboratorium didapatkan dengan albumin serum 2,4 g/dl; cholesterol total 396 g/dl;  protein loss 6g/24jam; protein urin (+3). Pasien telah terdiagosis sindrom nefrotik 2 tahun sebelumnya dan dinyatakan sembuh. Saat ini pasien didiagnosis dengan sindroma nefrotik relaps, dan telah dilakukan biopsi ginjal dengan gambaran peningkatan matriks dan seluleritas mesangial, foam cell changes pada tubuli dan adanya inflamasi pada jaringan interstisial, yang mengarah pada diagnosis MCD yang diduga mengalami evolusi (perkembangan) menuju FSGS. Kasus ini diangkat karena merupakan kasus jarang yang memiliki prognosis yang kurang baik terkait resistensi terhadap kortikosteroid.

Nephrotic syndrome presenting in pregnancy is rare and poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Timing of renal biopsy is important given the increased risk of bleeding and miscarriage, and the choice of immunosuppression is limited due to the teratogenicity profiles of standard drugs. We report and discuss a case of minimal change disease diagnosed by renal biopsy during early pregnancy and treated with corticosteroids throughout the pregnancy. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of glomerular disease in pregnancy are vital to prevent poor maternal and fetal outcomes.

AbstractFocal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a serious condition leading to kidney failure. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of FSGS and its differences compared with minimal change disease (MCD) using cross-sectional data from the Japan Renal Biopsy Registry. In Analysis 1, primary FSGS (n = 996) were stratified by age into three groups: pediatric (< 18 years), adult (18–64 years), and elderly (≥ 65 years), and clinical characteristics were compared. Clinical diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome (NS) was given to 73.5% (97/132) of the pediatric, 41.2% (256/622) of the adult, and 65.7% (159/242) of the elderly group. In Analysis 2, primary FSGS (n = 306) and MCD (n = 1303) whose clinical diagnosis was nephrotic syndrome (NS) and laboratory data were consistent with NS, were enrolled. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to elucidate the variables which can distinguish FSGS from MCD. On multivariable analysis, higher systolic blood pressure, higher serum albumin, lower eGFR, and presence of hematuria associated with FSGS. In Japanese nationwide registry, primary FSGS patients aged 18–64 years showed lower rate of NS than those in other ages. Among primary nephrotic cases, FSGS showed distinct clinical features from MCD.
