  • Title: Congenital nephrotic syndrome responsive to captopril and indometacin.
    Author: Heaton PA, Smales O, Wong W.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1999 Aug; 81(2):174-5. PubMed ID: 10490532.
    Abstract:
    Two children with congenital nephrotic syndrome are described (one with Finnish-type nephrosis, the other with diffuse mesangial sclerosis). Both children have had a prolonged and sustained clinical response with good physical health and normal growth patterns using captopril and indometacin as their sole treatment. No adverse effects have been noted. We recommend a trial of indometacin and captopril treatment in cases of congenital nephrotic syndrome.
