  • Title: Congenital nephrotic syndrome masquerading as respiratory illness.
    Author: Aslam M, DeGrazia M, Hossain T.
    Journal: Am J Perinatol; 2008 Oct; 25(9):601-4. PubMed ID: 18841537.
    Abstract:
    Congenital nephrotic syndrome is rare and is often found incidentally while investigating other disorders. The diagnosis is made by typical clinical features and laboratory tests in infants < 3 months of age. It may be inherited, sporadic, acquired, or associated with a syndrome. We present the case of a former premature infant with respiratory distress at 3 months of age who was subsequently diagnosed with Finnish-type congenital nephrotic syndrome resulting from an unusual mode of inheritance.
