C1q nephropathy in a child with a chromosome 13 deletion

Isabel Roberti et al. Pediatr Nephrol. 2006 May.

Abstract

C1q nephropathy (C1qNP) is a rare cause of childhood nephrotic syndrome (NS). We describe a child with retinoblastoma, lipomyelomeningocele and a chromosome 13 deletion who presented with massive proteinuria due to C1qNP. Despite steroid resistance, successful treatment of the NS was achieved with mycophenolate mofetil.
