Two adolescents with frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome newly diagnosed after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination: case report and literature review.

Even though several cases of new-onset nephrotic syndrome following vaccination against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been reported, none have included the medium- to long-term prognosis of the patients. Here, we report the prognoses of two adolescents, aged 14 and 15 years, who developed nephrotic syndrome soon after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Both patients were diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome after developing edema within a few days post-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

New-onset pediatric nephrotic syndrome following Pfizer-BioNTech SARS-CoV-2 vaccination: a case report and literature review.

Various new vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been rapidly developed. The new onset and recurrence of nephrotic syndrome triggered by some vaccines have been documented and several adult cases of minimal change nephrotic syndrome newly developing after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination have been reported. However, no reports of pediatric cases have been published.
