2.Primary Focal Segmental Glomerulossclerosis and Minimal Change Disease as one Spectrum of Disease
Malaysian Journal of Medicine and Health Sciences 2018;14(3):64-66
Minimal Change Disease (MCD) and Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) are common causes of nephrotic syndrome. These two conditions are similar in their presentations but differentiated via their histopathological features and responsiveness to corticosteroids. There are ongoing debates whether MCD and FSGS are at the same spectrum of disease rather than separate entities. FSGS has been postulated to be the severe end of the spectrum of MCD. We have reported a case that has primary FSGS after years of poorly controlled MCD, which supports both conditions are the same spectrum of disease.

We report on two children with a high risk of recurrent focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) after renal transplantation that could be effectively prevented by prophylactic administration of cyclosporine combined with preemptive plasmapheresis prior to renal transplantation.

Renal involvement is one of the extra-articular manifestations found in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Membranous glomerulonephopathy, membranoproliferative glomeruonophritis, secondary amyloidosis, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis are reported as pathologic diagnoses of renal involvement. However, reports of renal involvement in patients with RA and antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated pauci-immune glomerulonephritis are rare. Recently, we experienced two patients with RA who developed azotemia and were finally diagnosed with ANCA-associated pauci-immune glomerulonephritis. Because of the rarity of these cases, we report two cases in patients with RA with a literature review.

Nocardia is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause disseminated disease in serious immunosuppressive patients with organ transplantation, advanced HIV infection, malignancy or long-term corticosteroid use. Cerebral nocardiosis constitutes the most severe form of Nocardial infection. Early detection and treatment of cerebral abscess of Nocardia is important because the mortality is three times higher than that of other bacterial cerebral abscesses. We report a case of N. farcinica brain abscess in a focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) patient after steroid treatment.

Methylprednisolone (MP) is administered by means of intravenous pulse therapy especially in the patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). There have been reports of its complications in a few increasing frequency. We experienced three cases of cardiac complications during intravenous pulse therapy. There were one case of 2 A-V block (Mobitz type I) and two cases of bradycardia and hypotension. In the former, 2 A-V block in the first case deveoloped 45 hours after MP infusion and subsided subsequently but reappeared at his EKG checked after 4 months. All of these complications resolved spontaneously. We should be awared of the fact that arrythmia resulting from MP infusion can be fetal. Therefore when IMPT are attempted, we should keep in mind of emergency life-saving preparations at bedside.
