ABSTRACT
Diabetic nephropathy is a clinical syndrome characterized by persistent albuminuria, a relentless decline in GFR and raised arterial blood pressure, and usually diagnosed on clinical grounds without a renal biopsy. Their renal injuries are irreversible and they become eventually end-stage renal disease. Recently, it has been reported that proteinuria are also induced by other causes, and some of the renal diseases was treatable. The detection of non-diabetic renal disease in diabetic patients by renal biopsy has the prognostic and therapeutic importance. We report a case of type II diabetic mellitus with minimal change nephrotic syndrome, and no evidence of diabetic glomerulosclerosis.
