Development of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis after anabolic steroid abuse.
Anabolic steroid abuse adversely affects the endocrine system, blood lipids, and the liver, but renal injury has not been described. We identified an association of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and proteinuria in a cohort of 10 bodybuilders (six white and four Hispanic; mean body mass index 34.7) after long-term abuse of anabolic steroids. The clinical presentation included protein...
متن کاملSecondary Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis: From Podocyte Injury to Glomerulosclerosis
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a common cause of proteinuria and nephrotic syndrome leading to end stage renal disease (ESRD). There are two types of FSGS, primary (idiopathic) and secondary forms. Secondary FSGS shows less severe clinical features compared to those of the primary one. However, secondary FSGS has an important clinical significance because a variety of renal diseas...
متن کاملSteroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome secondary to primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and smoldering multiple myeloma.
We present a patient with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome due to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis along with smoldering multiple myeloma. While investigating the cause of proteinuria, a monoclonal gammopathy with a negative kidney biopsy for myeloma-related pathology was discovered.
متن کاملSteroid-responsive polyradiculopathy in association with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
An 80-year-old woman presented with simultaneous increasing muscle weakness and nephrotic syndrome. A renal biopsy confirmed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Her neurological diagnosis best fitted with a Guillain-Barre-like syndrome. There have been several cases of FSGS in combination with both conventional and atypical Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). Our patient was treated with high...
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 ...
