Abstract

This article from Clinical Case Reports discusses a case of a diabetic patient with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and infection-related glomerulonephritis (IRGN) leading to rapid renal decline. The patient's complex condition required careful management to balance immunosuppressive treatments for FSGS with infection control strategies for IRGN. The case highlights the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration, timely histopathological assessment, and personalized treatment approaches to prevent irreversible kidney damage in high-risk patients with overlapping pathologies.
