What is renal sclerosis?

Focal Segmental glomerulosclerosis is a type of glomerular disease and describes scarring (sclerosis) in your kidney. The scarring of FSGS only takes place in small sections of each glomerulus (filter), and only a limited number of glomeruli are damaged at first.

What is focal segmental glomerulosclerosis?

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is scar tissue in the filtering unit of the kidney. This structure is called the glomerulus. The glomeruli serve as filters that help the body get rid of harmful substances. Each kidney has thousands of glomeruli. "Focal" means that some of the glomeruli become scarred.

What is Sclerosis of bone?

Bone sclerosis is defined as “an abnormal increase in density and hardening of bone” according to Biology online. In our clinical practice, sclerotic bone lesions are relatively common to be found on plain radiographs or CT scans.

What are bone lesions?

A bone lesion is considered a bone tumor if the abnormal area has cells that divide and multiply at higher-than-normal rates to create a mass in the bone. The term "tumor" does not indicate whether an abnormal growth is malignant (cancerous) or benign, as both benign and malignant lesions can form tumors in the bone.

What causes glomerular sclerosis?

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis can be caused by a variety of conditions, such as diabetes, sickle cell disease, other kidney diseases and obesity. It can also be caused by an infection and drug toxicity. A rare form of FSGS is caused by inherited abnormal genes.

Why is segmental glomerulosclerosis called focal?

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a rare disease that received its name because of how the affected kidney tissue looked under a microscope. Each of your kidneys contain about one million small filters. These filters are made up of a tuft of small blood vessels called a glomerulus.

What is chronic glomerulosclerosis?

Glomerulosclerosis is scarring in the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys called the glomeruli. These are the tiny units in the kidneys that filter urine from the blood.

What is segmental or focal?

"Focal" means that some of the glomeruli become scarred. Others remain normal. "Segmental" means that only part of an individual glomerulus is damaged.

Is FSGS the same as nephrotic syndrome?

FSGS is a rare disease that attacks the kidney's filtering units (glomeruli) and causes serious scarring, leading to permanent kidney damage and even kidney failure. FSGS is one of the causes of a serious condition known as Nephrotic Syndrome.

How many types of FSGS are there?

Another classification system, called the Columbia Classification, breaks down FSGS into five subtypes based on the appearance (morphology) of the FSGS lesions affecting the glomeruli as seen under a microscope. These five variants are: perihilar, cellular, tip, collapsing, and FSGS not otherwise specified.

What is glomerular disease?

Glomerular disease characterized by an inflammatory reaction, with leukocyte infiltration and cellular proliferation of the glomeruli, or that appears to be the result of immune glomerular injury. Impairment of health or a condition of abnormal functioning of the kidney. Inflammation of any part of the kidney.

What is a type 1 exclude note?
