Plasma exchange for concurrent lupus nephritis and antiphospholipid syndrome
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can be associated with vascular thrombosis due to antiphospholipid antibodies. Accumulating evidence indicates that renal microvascular thrombosis due to lupus anticoagulant is an independent risk factor for poor renal outcome in lupus nephritis [1, 2]. In this report, we present a young woman with diffuse proliferative lupus nephritis and glomerular microthro...
