Nephropathy in patients with RA varies and could be due to RA itself and/or to anti-rheumatic therapy]. Renal involvement usually occurs several years after the diagnosis of RA and can present as glomerulonephritis (mesangial, membranous, focal proliferative, and minimal change lesions), amyloidosis, or interstitial nephritis Similarly, NS may complicate juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and has been described in adults children and infants with JIA. In these patients, it has been characterized by amyloidosis and glomerulonephritis . We report a case of primary steroid-sensitive NS (SSNS) and JIA in which nephrosis preceded the development of JIA by years.  ISSN : 0749-8063  Journal Name : Pediatr Nephrol  Volume : 11  Issue Number : 17  Publishing Year : 2002 AH 2002 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Wednesday, March 10, 2010  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email جميلة قاري Kari, Jameela Researcher Doctorate   Files File Name Type Description  25869.doc doc   Back To Researches Page
