dc.description.abstractCollapsing glomerulopathy (CG) is a severe form of nephrotic syndrome and has been mostly associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Treatment response is poor, and the disease frequently leads to end-stage renal disease. More recently, CG has been described in association with other conditions, such as drug exposure and other infections, but renal prognosis remains unfavorable. This paper reports an interesting case of an HIV-negative patient with tuberculosis-related CG who needed dialysis for five months but presented full renal recovery after tuberculosis (TB) treatment and corticotherapy.
