Abstract

Background: Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a histologic pattern of glomerular injury that can be primary or secondary to various conditions, including obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Renal masses, often detected incidentally, can be benign or malignant, with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) being the most common. This case report presents a patient with FSGS secondary to type 2 diabetes and a concomitant renal pseudotumor, initially suspected to be RCC. Case presentation: A 60-year-old woman presented with weakness, fever, and weight loss. Imaging revealed a renal mass, initially suspected to be RCC. A kidney biopsy revealed FSGS, and further evaluation confirmed type 2 diabetes. After controlling her diabetes and hypertension, the renal mass regressed, suggesting a pseudotumor. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering pseudotumors in the differential diagnosis of renal masses, especially in patients with comorbidities such as diabetes. A kidney biopsy can help avoid unnecessary invasive procedures like nephrectomy.

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing public health problem related to loss of kidney function and cardiovascular disease as the main causes of morbidity and mortality in CKD. It is known that CKD is associated with intestinal dysbiosis. There is an influence of the gut microbiota on the gut-kidney axis and it works reciprocally: on the one hand, CKD significantly changes the composition and function of the gut microbiota. On the other hand, gut microbiota is able to manipulate the processes that cause the emergence and progression of CKD through inflammatory, endocrine and neurological pathways. Understanding the complex interactions between gut and kidney microbiota may provide novel nephroprotective interventions to prevent the progression of CKD by therapeutically targeting balance of gut microbiota composition.
