Résumé
Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome is one of the most common chronic renal disorders in children. Associated bilateral pleural effusion is common due to the transudative process as a result of hypoalbuminemia. However, unilateral pleural effusion is a rare phenomenon and at times, unresponsive even when the patients are in remission. Here, we report two cases of frequent relapse nephrotic syndrome presented as persistent unilateral pleural effusion responsive to chemical pleurodesis, which was done with bleomycin along with normal saline.
