Abstract

Abstract Background Diabetic nephropathy may begin in childhood, but clinical kidney disease ascribable to this is uncommon in children with type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetes mellitus. Methods We reviewed our experience of kidney biopsies in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Results Between 1995 and 2022, there were biopsies in 17 children, with various clinical indications for kidney biopsy, making this the largest series of biopsies in diabetic children with clinical kidney abnormalities. Four biopsies showed diabetic nephropathy, three showed the combination of diabetic nephropathy and IgA nephropathy, and ten showed a variety of conditions other than diabetic nephropathy: minimal change disease (2), membranous nephropathy (2), thin glomerular basement membrane lesion (2), non-glomerular chronic damage in Wolcott–Rallison syndrome (2), acute pauciimmune necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis (1) and IgA nephropathy (1). Clinical clues of something other than diabetic nephropathy included acute kidney injury, microscopic haematuria or chronic kidney impairment with little or no proteinuria and the nephrotic syndrome after a short duration of diabetes. Conclusions We confirm that changes better known in adults with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus can occur in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus: overt diabetic nephropathy either on its own or combined with other conditions and kidney disorders other than diabetic nephropathy.
