FSGS: Classification and risk prediction

FSGS is not a single disease, but a pattern of injury seen in glomeruli. Understanding the cause is critical when making management decisions, but there is currently no singular urine or plasma biomarker that allows for simple differentiation; classification relies on accurate interpretation of clinical and histological features. 

Here Prof. An De Vriese discusses her view on classification and prognostication of FSGS. Prof. De Vriese is head of the Division of Nephrology and Infectious Disease at the AZ Sint-Jan hospital in Bruges, Belgium. 

By completing this module, you can qualify for 0.25 CME credits. To claim your credits, you must watch the video and successfully pass the post-module assessment.
