Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in Syrian children: clinicopathological spectrum, treatment, and outcomes.

FSGS was the most common histopathological pattern in idiopathic SRNS and had the worst prognosis. Calcineurin inhibitors could be an effective therapy to induce complete remission in SRNS. Rituximab may be an effective treatment to achieve sustained remission in SDNS and frequently relapsing NS and may have a potential role in SRNS with further studies required.
