Causes
Primary Causes
Primary renal disorders, such as primary glomerulonephritides, may cause primary nephrotic syndrome. Differentiation between different types of glomerular diseases is often made by clinical suspicion and by renal biopsy, which includes light microscopy, immunofluorescence, and ideally electron microscopy.
Secondary Causes
Secondary causes of renal disorders cause secondary nephrotic syndrome. These conditions must always be considered in the differential diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome.
