Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystemic disease but without a classical disease-specific renal phenotype. A 32-year-old male patient with CF (ΔF508/ΔF508) presented with a nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy revealed nodular glomerulosclerosis (NGS) occurring in the absence of diabetes mellitus, amyloidosis and any other known common cause of NGS. He had a progressive decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to chronic kidney disease stage V (eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) over a 3-year period despite optimal medical management. This is the fourth reported case of NGS in a patient with CF without diabetes and is the first to originate from a European country. This case supports the concept of a CF-related NGS.
囊性纤维化(CF)是一种多系统疾病,但没有典型的疾病特异性肾脏表型。一名32岁的CF男性患者(ΔF508/ΔF508)出现肾病综合征。肾活检显示在无糖尿病、淀粉样变性及任何其他已知的导致结节性肾小球硬化(NGS)的常见病因的情况下发生了结节性肾小球硬化。尽管进行了最佳的药物治疗,但在3年时间里,他的估计肾小球滤过率(eGFR)逐渐下降至慢性肾脏病V期(eGFR<15 mL/min/1.73 m²)。这是第四例报道的无糖尿病的CF患者发生NGS的病例,也是首例来自欧洲国家的病例。该病例支持了与CF相关的NGS这一概念。
