Overview
History and Symptoms
The symptoms are proteinuria (leakage of protein into the urine) and water retention. There are other kidney diseases that have these same symptoms but a needle biopsy shows change in the kidney tissue if these other diseases are present. 80% of those who get minimal change disease have a recurrence with 20% never realizing another occurrence. Some authors have noted that other conditions associated with T-cell abnormalities, such as Hodgkin's disease and T-cell lymphoma, are sometimes associated with minimal change disease.
