RESUMO
The authors treated eight children with corticoid dependent syndrome caused by minor abnormalities of the glomeruli with Cyclosporin A. They administered Cyclosporin, 5 mg/kg/24 h., for a period of 8-16 weeks. In three patients they used Cyclosporin A alone, 5 children were given in addition 10 mg Prednisone per day. They achieved complete remission in all patients. During treatment they monitored haematological and biochemical parameters as well as Cyclosporin A levels; before treatment and after its termination they examined also immunological indicators. They did not observe any serious side effects of treatment.
