| Core Tip |
Minimal change disease (MCD) constitutes the third most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults. The information is scanty on the clinicopathological features, treatment responses, and long-term outcomes of MCD in adults, particularly from developing countries. This study revealed that MCD in adults shows a favorable response to steroid therapy, with a majority achieving remission. However, relapses are common, necessitating second-line immunosuppressive treatments in some cases. The study highlights the need for standardized treatment guidelines for adult MCD to optimize outcomes. |
