Retrospective analysis of the outcome of pediatric lupus nephritis, single center study

Abstract

Aim: We aim to analyse in this study was outcome results and therapy modalities in patients with lupus nephritis. Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of our 37 lupus patients, diagnosed and treated between1986-2006. Conclusions: The mean age at onset of disease was 13 ± 2.2 years. Renal involvement was present in 26 (70.2%) of the patients. At the time of the initial biopsy, proteinuria was observed in 15 (57.7%) patients, and it was within nephrotic range in 4 (15.3%) patients. 11 (42.3%) patients had hematuria, 7 (26.9%) had hypertension, and 6 (23%) had impaired renal function. The most frequent histopathological finding was class II (42.3%), followed by class IV (30.7%), class III (15.3%) and class I (11.7%) lupus nephritis (LN). All patients with class IV lupus nephritis had a significant tendency for developing hypertension (p=0.006) and nephrotic range proteinuria (p=0.004). 57% of patients with lupus nephritis had remission, 30% of them still had active disease. Result: Finally, the prognosis of children with LN depends primarily on the severity of histopathological lesions.
