Abstract
Recurrent focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) after kidney transplantation is a serious concern with poor allograft outcomes. Possible circulating permeability factors are postulated as pathogenetic factors leading to recurrence. Genetic FSGS is said to have a negligible risk of posttransplant recurrence. Here, we describe an unfortunate patient of genetic FSGS (pathogenic genetic variant) who had a recurrence within hours after transplant and presented with a sudden onset of anuria. The patient did not respond to plasma exchange and subsequently underwent allograft nephrectomy.
