Cetuximab-Associated Crescentic Diffuse Proliferative Glomerulonephritis
Cetuximab-induced nephrotoxicity is very rare, occurring in less than 1% of colorectal cancer patients and not defined in other populations. We report a rare case of crescentic diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis (GN) that developed in close temporal association with cetuximab treatment. A 65-year-old female recently completed chemotherapy with cetuximab treatment for moderately differenti...
متن کاملIgM associated primary diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis.
Twenty-three cases of IgM associated primary diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis are presented. In 18, IgM was the sole localising host immunoglobulin, and it was the predominant globulin in five; C3 was also present in 18. Light microscopy revealed variable diffuse and global mesangial proliferation in all cases, with additional focal global sclerosis in 16, focal segmental scle...
متن کاملPrognostic factors in mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to examine patients with mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), with or without glomerular IgA deposits, and to analyse the effect of different clinical and histopathological variables at the time of biopsy on progression to end-stage renal failure (ESRF) and death. METHODS We retrospectively examined 273 patients who got this diagnosis in Norway ...
متن کاملAuricular chondritis and diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis in primary Sjögren's syndrome.
Bilateral auricular inflammation with histological changes of relapsing polychondritis was observed in a female patient with primary Sjögren's syndrome. This was accompanied by rapidly progressive renal insufficiency due to diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis. To our knowledge this is the first well documented case of primary Sjögren's syndrome associated with chondritis and glomerulonephr...
متن کاملImmune profile of IgA-dominant diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis
The diagnosis of IgA-dominant post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) may be challenging, as it must be differentiated from that of active IgA nephropathy. Predominant clinicopathologic features of IgA-dominant PIGN substantially overlap with those of active IgA nephropathy. Here, we present a case of a 67-year-old woman with rapidly rising serum creatinine, proteinuria and severe hypertensio...
