Vizjak A et al. - This study identified two predominant clinicopathologic subsets of C1q nephropathy: (1) Podocytopathy with a minimal change–like lesion or FSGS, which typically presents with nephrotic syndrome, and (2) a typical immune complex–mediated glomerular disease that varies from no glomerular lesions to diverse forms of glomerular proliferation, which typically presents as chronic kidney disease. Clinical presentation, histology, outcomes, and presumably pathogenesis of C1q nephropathy are heterogeneous.
