| Publisher Description: Nephrotic syndrome is a condition in which the glomeruli (the filters of the kidneys) in the kidneys are damaged, causing them to leak large amounts of protein from the blood into the urine. When this condition happens in children, it is called childhood nephrotic syndrome or childhood nephrosis. Although a rare condition, it is one of the most common kidney problems found among children. If your child has this potentially devastating condition, this book contains the vital information you need to know for your child's well being. |
