Results of the renal biopsy performed ultimately revealed a pattern of collapsing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), in the setting of COVID-19 infection. Acute renal failure in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection is associated with higher morbidity, mortality, need for renal replacement therapy and worse overall outcomes. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the leading causes of high-grade proteinuria with endstage renal disease (ESRD). [12] performed kidney biopsies on 17 patients with COVID 19 infection, of which 29% had collapsing FSGS as the primary diagnosis for acute kidney injury. In conclusion, collapsing FSGS is an under-recognized cause for renal failure associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. There should be a low threshold to suspect collapsing FSGS in patients with high-grade proteinuria, acute kidney injury, African descent and nephrotic syndrome in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.	./cache/cord-035314-afngpddq.txt	./txt/cord-035314-afngpddq.txt
