Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with nontuberculous mycobacteria.
A 72-year-old woman with a past medical history of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) pulmonary disease was admitted because of hemoptysis and acute renal failure. A chest X-ray showed interstitial infiltration over bilateral lung fields. Kidney biopsy showed immune complex-mediated acute diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis with 48% crescents and glomerular endocapillary hypercellularity wi...
متن کاملA Case of Membranous Glomerulonephritis with Superimposed Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Rapidly Progressive Crescentic Glomerulonephritis
Idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis (IMGN) is commonly diagnosed in adults with proteinuria. Rapid deterioration of renal function is a rare complication of IMGN, except when accompanied by renal vein thrombosis, malignant hypertension, or other underlying disease, including lupus nephritis. Here, we present a case of rapid deterioration of renal function in a patient with MGN superimposed...
متن کاملComplicated acute motor axonal neuropathy with delayed acute respiratory distress syndrome and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis: a case report.
PURPOSE Acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN), a variant of Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS), is frequently induced by the antecedent infection of some atypical pathogen, such as Campylobacter jejuni, Mycoplasma pneumonia and some virus. It is generally accepted that corticosteroids and immunosuppressants are not recommended in patients with GBS including AMAN. However, if systemic autoimmune react...
متن کاملRapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis
Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis are a group of renal diseases which are still posing serious threat to human health and survival. They are all characterised by acute and rapid deterioration of renal function. Renal biopsy reveals extracapillary glomerulonephritis, most frequently circumferential and diffuse, and immunofluorescence findings continue to represent the most important clue to...
متن کامل'Pauci-immune' rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with systemic vasculitis.
'Pauci-immune' glomerulonephritis has been recognized as an important cause of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. The paucity of immune deposits can be separated from the other two major immunohistologic variants of crescentic glomerulonephritis, ie, antiglomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibody-mediated and immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis. Here we describe the case of a 42-ye...
