Overview
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) was discovered by Theodor Fahr, a German pathologist, in 1925, and he referred to it as "lipoid nephrosis with degeneration", showing a clear association to minimal change disease. In 1957, FSGS was then described by Dr. Arnold Rich, a pathologist at Johns Hopkins University.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) was first discovered by Theodor Fahr, a German pathologist, in 1925.[1]
- He referred to it as "lipoid nephrosis with degeneration", showing a clear association to minimal change disease.[2]
- In 1957, FSGS was then described by Dr. Arnold Rich, a pathologist at Johns Hopkins University.[3]
- In 1970, Jacob Churg and colleagues finally classified FSGS as a unique renal glomerulopathy in the " Pathology of the Nephrotic Syndrome in Children: Report for the International International Study of Kidney Disease in Children" in view of its clinical and pathological features, and its steroid-resistance in comparison to minimal change disease.[4]
