Overview

The cause of minimal change disease has not been identified or idiopathic.Nephrotic syndrome is most commonly as a result of damage to the clusters of tiny blood vessels (glomeruli) .But secondary causes may be due to Drugs,Toxins,Infection and Tumor .

Common Causes

Common risk factors in the development of minimal change disease include:[1]

  • Children within the Age >1 year but <8 years
  • Hodgkin lymphoma
  • leukemia
  • Recent viral illness
  • Toxins like Mercury, bee stings, fire coral exposure are one of the causes for minimal change disease.
  • Drugs like[2]
    • Salazopyrin
    • Mercury
    • Tiopronin
    • Lithium
    • D-penicillamine
    • Gold
    • Tyrosine-kinase inhibitor

Less Common Causes

Less common causes of  minimal change disease include:[3]

  • Hepatitis B or C infection
  • low birth weight (LBW)
  • Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
