Our systematic approach based on precise clinicopathological findings including nephrotic syndrome, treatment responses, and diffuse foot process effacement might be useful to differentiate pediatric kidney transplant recipients with FSGS/SRNS who are likely to have a monogenic cause from patients who are not, and to predict post-transplant recurrence.
