Morphologic variants of FSGS

1.  FSGS,  not  otherwise  specified  (NOS;  also  known  as  classic FSGS)

2.  FSGS,  perihilar  variant
3.  FSGS,  cellular  variant
4.  FSGS,  collapsing  variant  (also  known  as  collapsing glomerulopathy)
5.  FSGS,  tip  variant

classic,  or  NOS;  perihilar  variant,  in which  more  than  50%  of  glomeruli  with  segmental  lesions  display hyalinosis  and  sclerosis  involving  the  vascular  pole  region;  cellular variant,  manifesting  endocapillary  hypercellularity;  collapsing variant,  in  which  at  least  one  glomerulus  has  global  collapse  and overlying  visceral  cell  hypertrophy  and  hyperplasia;  and  tip  variant with  segmental  lesions  involving  the  tubular  pole
