A 40-year-old Filipino female with a history of right total mastectomy for a low-grade phyllodes tumor was admitted due to stillbirth. Her laboratory results revealed an incidental finding of a positive COVID-19 RT-PCR swab, serum creatinine 1.04 mg/dL, urine RBC 1/HPF, and a 24-hour urine protein of 9.22 grams with hypoalbuminemia and dyslipidemia. Serologic workup was noted to be negative. A kidney biopsy was performed which demonstrated unremarkable light microscopy (LM) and immunofluorescence (IF) with widespread podocyte-foot process effacement, consistent with minimal change disease. She was started on prednisone (1 mg/kg/day) and achieved complete remission after six weeks. A 61-year-old Filipino male with a history of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, Dyslipidemia, and mild COVID-19 infection four months prior, now presented with diarrhea. On admission, his COVID-19 RT-PCR swab revealed a reinfection. Workup demonstrated a serum creatinine 3.39 mg/dL, urine RBC 2/HPF, and urine ACR 2.6 g/g. Serologic tests were negative. He was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome and underwent kidney biopsy. Findings showed an unremarkable LM and IF with widespread podocyte-foot process effacement, consistent with minimal change disease. He was started on prednisone (1 mg/kg/day) and achieved complete remission after eight weeks. SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) may present with a variety of kidney involvement which includes glomerulopathies such as MCD. An accurate diagnosis using the patient’s clinical presentation, renal histopathology, and adjunct laboratory examinations, is essential to direct effective management and good outcomes.

Kimura's disease is a chronic inflammatory soft tissue disorder with peripheral eosinophila and high serum IgE. It might be associated with nephrotic syndrome. We report a 6-year-old boy with Kimura's disease and the concurrent steroid dependant minimal change nephrotic syndrome. With levamisole treatment fot 24 months, tumor progression and relapse of the associated nephrotic syndrome were not observed.
