Morphological features of primary focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis.

Focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the most common and non-specific patterns of glomerular injury encountered in human renal biopsies. The primary form can be considered when there is a nephrotic syndrome without other causes. The majority of authors agree that podocytes play a role in the development of segmental glomerulosclerosis. The lesion begins with cell hypertrophy,...

Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis.

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a leading cause of kidney disease worldwide. The presumed etiology of primary FSGS is a plasma factor with responsiveness to immunosuppressive therapy and a risk of recurrence after kidney transplant-important disease characteristics. In contrast, adaptive FSGS is associated with excessive nephron workload due to increased body size, reduced nephron ...

Idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis.

Idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a primary glomerular disease that essentially represents a form of chronic, progressive renal fibrosis for which there is no discernible cause. Often presenting with or eventually manifesting the nephrotic syndrome, this disease is increasing in incidence in both children and adults. Therapy continues to be a challenge, although some patie...

Collapsing Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

Background and objectives: Treatment with IFN is rarely associated with nephrotic syndrome and renal biopsy findings of minimal-change disease or FSGS. Design, setting, participants, & measurements: We report 11 cases of collapsing FSGS that developed during treatment with IFN and improved after discontinuation of therapy. Results: The cohort consists of seven women and four men with a mean age...

Unwinding focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) represents the most common primary glomerular disease responsible for the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the United States (US). The disease progresses from podocyte injury to chronic kidney disease (CKD), ultimately leading to total nephron degeneration. Extensive basic science research has been conducted to unwind the mechanisms of F...
