==Complications==
Renal complications are the most common and most feared complications of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Unlike minimal change disease, spontaneous remission is very unlikely in FSGS. The degree of proteinuria correlates with the probability to spontaneous remission and progression of disease into chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).<ref name="pmid10382985">{{cite journal| author=Korbet SM| title=Clinical picture and outcome of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. | journal=Nephrol Dial Transplant | year= 1999 | volume= 14 Suppl 3 | issue=  | pages= 68-73 | pmid=10382985 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10382985  }} </ref>

According to a 10-year study in 1999, Approximately 50% of patients with heavy proteinuria in the nephrotic-range progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within 3-8 years.<ref name="pmid10382985">{{cite journal| author=Korbet SM|title=Clinical picture and outcome of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. |journal=Nephrol Dial Transplant | year= 1999 | volume= 14 Suppl 3 | issue= | pages= 68-73 |pmid=10382985 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10382985  }} </ref> In converse, patients with non-nephrotic range proteinuria often have a better prognosis, with a 10-year survival reaching > 80%.<ref name="pmid10382985">{{cite journal| author=Korbet SM| title=Clinical picture and outcome of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. | journal=Nephrol Dial Transplant | year= 1999 | volume= 14 Suppl 3 | issue=  | pages= 68-73 | pmid=10382985 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10382985  }} </ref> While spontaneous remission is highly uncommon in FSGS, occurring in less than 6% of patients, the degree of proteinuria may predict the probability of spontaneous remission.<ref name="pmid10382985">{{cite journal| author=Korbet SM| title=Clinical picture and outcome of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. | journal=Nephrol Dial Transplant | year= 1999 | volume= 14 Suppl 3 | issue=  | pages= 68-73 | pmid=10382985 | doi= | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10382985  }} </ref>
