FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS AND MULTIPLE MYELOMA.

Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 8

Abstract

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the most important causes of end-stage renal disease in the United States. FSGS is more prevalent in young African American patients. It is commonly associated with various conditions such as genetic abnormalities, metabolic disorders, infections, and drug abuse. FSGS is a rare disease, and its association with hematological disorders is uncommon. In this study, we are documenting a case of the FSGS due to underlying multiple myeloma. The objective of this study is to emphasize the importance of excluding hematologic disorders in the older patients before diagnosing them with idiopathic FSGS. Early diagnosis and treatment of the underlying condition responsible for the FSGS can lead to complete remission of the FSGS, thus preventing complications such as renal failure.
