Popis: There seems to be a possible link between nephrotic syndrome (NS) and lymphoproliferative syndrome, but it remains poorly understood.This multicentric and retrospective study focuses on children, who developed idiopathic NS and malignant or benign proliferation between 2000 and 2021.Eleven patients were included, with a median age of 4 years. Only one had a steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). The maintenance therapy before the proliferation was in majority tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), but three patients did not receive treatments. The proliferation was mainly a Hodgkin's lymphoma (45%) or a lymphoproliferative disease (36%), in a median time after the NS of two years. Viruses were found in seven cases (EBV in five cases and HHV-8 in two).The association between proliferative syndrome and idiopathic NS may not be fortuitous, possibly with a common lymphocytic disturbance. Genetic analyses could improve the comprehension of these manifestations in the future. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.
