Renal allograft survival in transplant recipients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis.
Previous literature suggests that the recurrence of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) after renal transplantation is more common in recipients who have received an HLA-identical living-related (LRD) transplant. To address the question if FSGS patients can safely receive a 6-antigen match LRD kidney transplant, we analyzed death-censored renal allograft survival data of FSGS patients fro...
متن کاملKidney Transplantation in Patients with Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a glomerulopathy primarily caused by podocyte injury that leads to focal adhesions formation between the glomerular tut and the visceral layer of Bowman capsule (1,2). h e global incidence of FSGS has been estimated at 8 cases/million/year, with 40-60% of patients developing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within 10 to 20 years at er diagnosis (3,4). ...
متن کاملFocal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis.
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a leading cause of kidney disease worldwide. The presumed etiology of primary FSGS is a plasma factor with responsiveness to immunosuppressive therapy and a risk of recurrence after kidney transplant-important disease characteristics. In contrast, adaptive FSGS is associated with excessive nephron workload due to increased body size, reduced nephron ...
متن کاملIdiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis.
Idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a primary glomerular disease that essentially represents a form of chronic, progressive renal fibrosis for which there is no discernible cause. Often presenting with or eventually manifesting the nephrotic syndrome, this disease is increasing in incidence in both children and adults. Therapy continues to be a challenge, although some patie...
