Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Orvosi Hetilap, 2008
A focalis segmentalis glomerulosclerosis fénymikroszkópos vizsgálattal látható jellegzetes morfológiájú glomeruluskárosodás, többféle szövettani altípussal és változó klinikai képpel. A különböző szövettani variánsokat újabban rendszerezték (Columbia-klasszifikáció).

Familial focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2001
There is increasing recognition of the importance of genetic factors in the development of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and related proteinuric disorders. Recently, four genes have been identified which, when defective, cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis or nephrosis.

Focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2006
An increasing cause of end-stage renal disease is the pathological lesion focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). FSGS is characterized by proteinuria and frequently nephrotic syndrome with ensuing renal failure. The etiology remains unknown in the majority of individuals.

Idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Seminars in Nephrology, 2003
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.

Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1989
• We studied 100 renal biopsy specimens from adults with the primary nephrotic syndrome in an inner city hospital serving mostly black patients and found that 47 had focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Most of the men presented in the third decade of life, a peak distribution not seen in women.

Treatment of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2001
The prognosis of untreated patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is poor, as the disease progress to end-stage renal disease in approximately 50--70% of nephrotic patients. Although focal segmental glomerulosclerosis was initially considered to be a steroid-resistant disease, several studies have shown a better responsiveness to more ...

Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1998
Over the last 2 decades, we have learnt that focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a ubiquitous phenomenon underlying the progressive deterioration of many different types of renal diseases in both pediatric and adult populations. FSGS may also be the primary renal lesion, whether in new disease entities such as glycogen storage disease and ...

[Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis].

Vnitrni lekarstvi, 1992
Focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis accounted for 4.1% of all primary glomerulopathies. Typical signs of focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis were striking arteriolosclerosis on histological examination, the urinary syndrome of high proteinuria with mild haematuria and frequent nephrotic syndrome.

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in children

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1995
Idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is a histologic diagnosis that usually presents as the nephrotic syndrome but, unlike minimal change disease, often leads to renal failure in children. Standard therapies used to treat the proteinuria are often futile, and thus patients are at risk for the multiple complications resulting from persistent ...

Treatment of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2005
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is not a disease, but a lesion affecting the podocyte. Secondary FSGS may be due to a host of various factors, and patients are rarely nephrotic, requiring symptomatic treatment only. The best prognostic feature of nephrotic FSGS is its response to corticosteroids.
