Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Primary and secondary forms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) are common causes of glomerular proteinuria. Secondary forms of FSGS seem to be the result of adaptive changes that follow a reduction in renal mass. We saw an elderly patient with severe bilateral renal vascular disease (RVD) who had FSGS on percutaneous biopsy. To find out whether elderly patients with atherosclerotic RVD are predisposed to the development of FSGS, we reviewed all cases of FSGS at our institution between 1990 and 1995.
METHODS: We identified 59 cases of biopsy-proven FSGS and examined clinical, histological, and radiographic records.
FINDINGS: Of the 59 patients, 24 were older than 50 years; eight of these had RVD. No patient under the age of 50 had RVD. Seven of the eight patients with RVD and FSGS had substantial proteinuria at presentation. All had typical glomerular lesions with focal segmental tuft collapse and synechiae; other glomeruli were hypertrophic. All patients showed further decline in renal function on follow-up.
INTERPRETATION: The association of FSGS and RVD may represent an under-recognised aetiology of significant proteinuria in elderly patients.
