Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) was first described in 1957 by Dr. Arnold Rich, a pathologist at Johns Hopkins University.[1] His original article "A hitherto undescribed vulnerability of the juxtamedullary glomeruli in lipoid nephrosis" was originally published in "Bulletin of the Johns Hopkins Hospital".[1] In his original description, he noted the presence of segmental sclerosis in juxtamedullary glomeruli of autopsies of uremic children with nephrosis.[1]
