Overview
History and Symptoms
The hallmark of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is nephrotic-range proteinuria.[1]
History
Patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis may have a positive history of:
- [History finding 1]
- [History finding 2]
- [History finding 3]
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis include:
- Proteinuria
- Hematuria
- Anasarca
- Headache and blurry vision, suggestive of high blood pressure
- Signs of fluid overload, such as peripheral edema or periorbital edema
- Dyspnea suggestive of pleural or pericardial effusion
- Abdominal fullness suggestive of ascites
Less Common Symptoms
Less common symptoms of [disease name] include
- Fatigue
- Malaise
- [Symptom 2]
- [Symptom 3]
Clinical Presentation
Generally, primary (idiopathic) focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) starts abruptly whereas secondary FSGS has a more insidious onset. The hallmark of FSGS is appearing in approximately 70% of patients.[2]
Common signs and symptoms associated with FSGS are shown below[1][2]:
- Other signs of renal insufficiency
Additionally, a positive family history, heroin abuse, chronic viral infections, and use of associated medications must be ruled out during history-taking.
In contrast, patients with secondary FSGS is often present with non-nephrotic range proteinuria, serum albumin levels that are usually normal, and most importantly, there is no peripheral edema, even when protein excretion exceeds 3 to 4 g/day.[3]
