Popis: A retrospective 5-year review was performed on 11 children (mean age of 14.6 yrs (8.1-18 yrs), 8 boys and 3 girls) who had SD or FRNS from April 2009 to April 2014. All patients were in remission for at least 4 weeks before the start of Rituximab, and they received two doses of intravenous rituximab (500 mg). Their demographics (body weight, height, renal pathology, and number of relapses a year before rituximab, previous and concomitant medical treatment) were recorded.
