Abstract

A case of minimal change nephrotic syndrome associated with acute oliguric renal failure after exercise is reported. Renal function returned to normal after the patient underwent hemodialysis, and the nephrotic state was improved by administration of prednisolone. Adequate supportive management of the renal failure and early administration of corticosteroids for nephrotic syndrome are important therapeutic procedures in such a situation.
