“…Congenital/hereditary focal glomerulosclerosis can occur due to genetic mutations in podocyte proteins, such as podocin, nephrin, or cation channel protein 6. Nephrotic syndrome can also be caused by drug abuse (Piccini et al, 2023), including heroin. Secondary causes of nephrotic syndrome are as follows:…”

“…In the pediatric population, nephrotic syndrome is most often caused by minimal change disease. In contrast, in the adult population, diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome (Piccini et al, 2023). In the United States, diabetic nephropathyassociated nephrotic syndrome occurs with an incidence of 50 cases per 1 million adult population.…”

“…The diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome (SN) in adults can be made if there is massive proteinuria (= 3.5 g per 24 hours) or equivalent to = 3.5 g/gCr at spot urine, hypoalbuminemia (= 3.0 g/dL), edema, as well as dyslipidemia (Piccini et al, 2023). Meanwhile, according to the Indonesian Pediatric Association (IDAI), the diagnostic criteria for nephrotic syndrome (SN) is massive proteinuria (> 40 mg/m2 body surface area/hour, or 50 mg/kg/day, or urine protein/creatinine ratio at > 2, or dipstick = 2+), hypoalbuminemia (< 2.5 g/dL), edema, and can be accompanied by hypercholesterolemia (> 200 mg/dL) (IDAI, 2012).…”

Nephrotic Syndrome is a glomerular disease characterized by edema, massive proteinuria >3.5 grams/day, hypoalbuminemia <3.5 grams/day, hypercholesterolemia, and lipiduria. Nephrotic syndrome has a variety of metabolic effects that impact the individual. Some episodes of nephrotic syndrome are self-limited, and some respond to specific therapy, while others are chronic. A 49 year old female patient complained of frequent sweats at night and chills in the morning. Then, the patient complained that his legs had been swollen since he left the hospital until now. Apart from that, edema also occurs in the lower extremities. The management given is general management such as rest, low cholesterol, low salt, fluid restriction <1500ml, and a protein diet. Treatment of edema with diuretics, treatment of proteinuria, treatment of hypertension and history of stroke, as well as causal treatment according to the etiology of nephrotic syndrome. The patient has undergone management planning and treatment therapy for nephrotic syndrome.

Familial Mediterranean fever is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent episodes of fever, peritonitis, pleuritis and arthritis. Neurological involvement in FMF is rare but serious. Headache, seizures, demyelinating lesions, stroke, posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy syndrome, aseptic meningitis and cranial neuropathy have been reported in the literature. In this paper, we present a combination of FMF and pseudotumor cerebri in an adult patient.
