Chronic Kidney Disease of Non-traditional Etiology in a Young Man From Central America: Geography, Poverty, and Uncertain Pathophysiology Create a Formidable Medical Challenge.

A man in his early 20s with kidney biopsy-confirmed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) was admitted with one month of nausea and vomiting, intermittent episodes of confusion, shortness of breath, and dysuria.

He believed the source of disease to be agrochemicals found in the village's water supply.
