Fibronectin glomerulopathy caused by genetic FN1 mutation: A case report and literature review
We report a case of a patient with fibronectin glomerulopathy and review the literature of this disease. The disease often has insidious onset, and fibronectin deposition is a typical pathological change that can result. The disease slowly progresses to end-stage renal disease. At present, there is no specific treatment. It is advocated to use reninangiotensin-aldosterone system blockers to strictly control blood pressure and proteinuria, and the overall prognosis is poor. Genetic testing techniques may be helpful in early diagnosis of the disease.
