摘要

We herein report the case of a 75-year-old man who developed an increased serum creatinine level (4.93 mg/dL) and oliguria with massive proteinuria (7.14 g/day) on the second day after a single oral administration of high-dose (56 mg) minodronate. The histology of a renal biopsy showed one area of glomerular sclerosis among 20 glomeruli with global foot process effacement of podocytes and mild infiltration of lymphocytes and eosinophils into the interstitial space. Acute kidney injury in nephrotic syndrome due to focal segmental glomerular sclerosis induced by minodronate was diagnosed. Following cessation of minodronate without the administration of immunosuppressive agents, the patient%26apos;s renal function and proteinuria markedly improved.
