ABSTRACT
Idiopathic focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (IFSGS) in a predominantly black population does not appear to behave any differently than in Caucasian patients. Response to steroid therapy and cyclophosphamide had favourable prognostic significance. There may be a subgroup of IFSGS which responds more slowly to steroids. The duration of steroid therapy should extend beyond four months
