Seven out of 16 patients with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FGS) did not showed the nephrotic syndrome throughout their clinical courses, and then patients with FGS could be divided into the two groups, nephrotic FGS group (NS-G) and non-nephrotic one (NO-G). The clinicopathologic findings of NS-G and NO-G were compared retrospectively to define the pathogenesis of the glomerular ...
