Post-transplant Recurrence of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis: Consensus Statements.
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the primary causes of nephrotic syndrome in both pediatric and adult patients, which can lead to end-stage kidney disease.

The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying the onset and the post-transplant recurrence of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) are complex and remain yet to be fully elucidated. However, a growing body of evidence emphasizes the pivotal role of

Morphometry of podocytes – a single center study of pediatric patients: is there any correlation with proteinuria level? [PDF]
Introduction. The most common diagnosis after a kidney biopsy in pediatric population is minimal change disease. When the prognosis is not favorable in spite of the minimal change disease diagnosis, there is a clinical suspicion of focal segmental ...

Adult-Onset Genetic Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis: A Tale of Two Mutations
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a kidney histologic lesion that may be caused by multiple aetiologies and pathophysiological mechanisms, with podocyte injury and depletion as the common denominator.

Interventions for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in adults.
BACKGROUND Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) can be separated into primary, genetic or secondary causes. Primary disease results in nephrotic syndrome while genetic and secondary forms may be associated with asymptomatic proteinuria or with ...

Posttransplant recurrence of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a major challenge in the field of kidney transplantation. Primary FSGS is thought to be caused by circulating factors (CFs) that injure podocytes, 1 but these factors ...

Novel Treatment Paradigms: Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a histologic pattern of injury defined by the presence of sclerosis in some (segmental) of certain glomeruli (focal).
