Well-recognized association between HIV 1 infection and collapsing glomerulopathy (CG) raises the possibility that intrarenal infection by other viruses may also contribute to the development of this lesion in native or post-transplant kidneys. There is evidence in literature about association of these lesions with cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, hepatitis C virus, and parvovirus B19 infec...
متن کاملDe Novo Collapsing Glomerulopathy: An Unusual Cause of Early Graft Failure following Kidney Transplantation
Collapsing glomerulopathy (CG) is a variant of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) characterized histologically by prominent glomerular capillary tuft collapse with hypertrophy and hyperplasia of podocytes and tubulointerstitial damage. Patients usually present with heavy proteinuria and rapidly progressive renal failure. We report a patient who developed de novo CG with severe clinical m...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus-induced collapsing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Collapsing glomerulopathy is an aggressive morphologic variant of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis which typically presents with nephrotic syndrome and rapidly progressive renal failure. Most cases of collapsing glomerulopathy are associated with human immunodeficiency virus infection. We present a rare case of collapsing glomerulopathy associated with acute cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in...

Collapsing glomerulopathy is a devastating renal disease that primarily affects African Americans and associates with numerous etiologies, such as HIV and autoimmune disease. The presence of APOL1 risk alleles associates with HIV-associated collapsing glomerulopathy, but it is unknown whether these risk alleles also associate with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) -associated collapsing glomer...
