The same immune-mediated pathogenesis may be involved in CIDP and concomitant nephropathy. Male and sensory-predominant CIDP are red flags for complications of renal diseases in CIDP patients. Corticosteroids remain the first-line treatment for CIDP when complicated with renal diseases. Slower tapering or long-term maintenance of steroids may be beneficial for the prognosis of patients with CIDP and nephropathy.
