On Biopsy results showing glomerulus proliferation cells mesangeal matrix, adhesions in (50%) glomerulus, focal sclerosis some glomeruli, erythrocyte visible urinary space thickening basement membrane partially atrophic tubules, erythrocytes tubular lumen. Conclusion: cushing hypokalemia who had renal feature from was segmental glomerulosclerosis. underlying cause FSGS still unclear. Assessing diagnosis etiology become important direct subsequent approach therapy
