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
