FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS 4, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; FSGS4
Alternate names
FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS 4, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; FSGS4 Is also known as end-stage renal disease, nondiabetic, susceptibility to, included
Description
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a pathologic entity associated clinically with proteinuria, the nephrotic syndrome (NPHS), and progressive loss of renal function. It is a common cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (Meyrier, 2005).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and nephrotic syndrome, see FSGS1 (OMIM ).
Most common symptoms of FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS 4, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; FSGS4
- Proteinuria
 - Stage 5 chronic kidney disease
 - Nephrotic syndrome
 - Chronic kidney disease
 - Glomerulosclerosis
