Nephrosis describes a clinical condition of edema and proteinuria characterized morphologically (light microscopy [LM]) by fatty degeneration of the renal tubules associated with normal glomeruli. The term nephrosis was introduced primarily to distinguish it from nephritis, a term used to denote the clinical condition associated with cellular proliferation of the glomerulus. Shortly thereafter the name of the condition was changed to lipoid nephrosis when it was noted that lipid droplets commonly were found in the urine of affected patients. Lipoid nephrosis gradually evolved to the present name of nephrotic syndrome (NS).

This Publication Is Searchable The Merck Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy Section 17. Genitourinary Disorders Chapter 224. Glomerular Diseases Topics [General] Nephritic Syndrome Nephrotic Syndrome Nephrotic Syndrome A predictable complex that results from a severe, prolonged increase in glomerular permeability for protein. Etiology and Classification Nephrotic syndrome (NS) occurs at any age but is more prevalent in children than in adults; in children, it is most common between ages 1 1/2 and 4 yr. There is a predilection for young males, but the sex distribution in older patients is more equal. Proteinuria is thought to occur through functional derangement of two mechanisms: the size-selective barrier leaks large protein molecules, and the charge-selective barrier fails to retain lower mol wt proteins. Diseases causing NS are listed in Table 224-7. Primary causes include minimal change disease, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (GN). NS can also be due to secondary causes. Symptoms and Signs An early sign of NS is frothy urine due to protein. Other features include anorexia, malaise, puffy eyelids, retinal sheen, abdominal pain, and wasting of muscles. Anasarca with ascites and pleural effusions may occur.

lipoid nephrosis Minimal change nephropathy is responsible for 90% of the cases of nephrotic syndrome in children less than 5 years of age. It also occurs in adults - approx 20%. The name is derived from the fact that the only detectable abnormality histologically is fusion and deformity of the foot processes under the electron microscope. Both light microscopy and immunofluorescence are unremarkable. The condition is most frequent in children aged between two and four years. It has been suggested that MCD is more common in atopic patients, especially those posessing HLA-DR7. However, a direct link between allergic sensitisation and the onset of MCD is yet to be established. MCD is steroid-responsive and, in general, does not lead to chronic renal failure.

Is lipoid nephrosis just an older name for minimal change disease questions because Nephrology is not my specialty. lipoid nephrosis is the same as Minimal Change Disease according http://www.medhelp.org/forums/urology/archive/175.html

Subject: lipoid nephrosis Topic Area: Urology - General Forum: The Urology Forum Question Posted By: Mieke on Friday, February 20, 1998 Posted by HFHS M.D.-MS on February 24, 1998 at 18:14:28: In Reply to: lipoid nephrosis posted by Mieke on February 20, 1998 at 04:11:09: Is lipoid nephrosis just an older name for minimal change disease? Can it also be called nil disease? I would like to know which term is most frequently used. Dear Mieke; Still hard at work on your thesis I see. I hope you still ask only the easly questions because Nephrology is not my specialty. Lipoid nephrosis is the same as Minimal Change Disease according to our Nephrologist on call. This can also be referred to as "nil disease". This information is provided for general medical education purposes only.

Each kidney is made of more than a million units called nephrons. Each nephron has a tuft of blood vessels called a glomerulus, which is surrounded by a Bowman's Capsule. Together, these structures filter blood and form urine. Minimal change disease is one cause of nephrotic syndrome . It is named "minimal change" because the nephrons appear totally normal under a light microscope. The condition is only seen using an electron microscope, which reveals changes in the Bowman's Capsule in the nephrons. Urine tests also show high protein levels.

You may receive instructions on how much salt to allow in your diet. Corticosteroids can cure minimal change disease in a vast majority of children. Some patients may require maintenance on steroids to sustain the remission. A minority of children may relapse after they stop taking steroids. If that happens, they usually respond well to a repeat course of the steroids. Adults do not respond to steroids quite as well as children, but a majority still do find steroids effective. The frequency of relapses and steroid dependence may be greater in adults.
