Overview
Differentiating Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis from other Diseases
Other renal causes of nephrotic syndrome should be in the differential diagnosis of FSGS. Notably also, the pathological appearance of tip lesions is not specific. Other diseases that might show tip lesions include[1]:
- Minimal change disease
- IgA nephropathy
- Membranous nephropathy
- Diabetic glomerulosclerosis
