    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Toxicology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder characterized by heavy protein in the urine.
    • Bee stings can cause various systemic reactions, including allergic responses.

    Observation:

    • A patient developed nephrotic syndrome following multiple bee stings.
    • Renal biopsy and serologic studies were performed.

    Findings:

    • The patient exhibited a positive response to steroid therapy.
    • This case adds to the limited documented evidence linking bee stings to nephrotic syndrome.

    Implications:

    • Further research is warranted to understand the mechanism between bee stings and nephrotic syndrome.
    • Clinicians should consider insect sting anaphylaxis in patients presenting with nephrotic syndrome.
