It is characterized by the destruction of the renal parenchyma and replacement by granulomatous tissue containing foamy lipid-laden macrophages and is classified into diffuse and focal XGP. We present a case of diffuse XGP in a child with myotonic dystrophy complicated by cerebral palsy and discuss the importance of correct diagnosis and preoperative management to reduce inflammation and improve malnutrition associated with the disease.
