Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage associated with proteinase 3-specific anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
A 31-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the management of progressive diffuse alveolar hemorrhage associated with renal dysfunction. Leukocytoclastic vasculitis was shown by skin biopsy and crescentic glomerulonephritis was also detected, in addition to positivity for proteinase 3-specific anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (PR3-ANCA). The patient was diagnosed as a rare case of ...
متن کاملcANCA-associated aortitis
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis is traditionally viewed as a small vessel disease. We report a patient with cANCA antibodies directed against proteinase-3 with asymptomatic aortic involvement, in combination with diffuse alveolar haemorrhage and pauci-immune, necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis. A review of the literature is discussed.
متن کاملDiffuse alveolar haemorrhage in ANCA-negative pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis
Pulmonary renal syndrome (PRS) is a combination of diffuse pulmonary haemorrhage and glomerulonephritis (GN). Though an established form of presentation in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated GN and vasculitis, diffuse pulmonary haemorrhage is extremely unusual in those with ANCA-negative GN. We present here a case of a 76-year-old Hispanic female with stage IV chronic ki...
متن کاملPulmonary renal syndrome in a case of Wegener's granulomatosis.
We report a case of a 42-year-old patient who presented with Wegener's granulomatosis complicated by pulmonary renal syndrome, i.e., diffuse alveolar haemorrhage and rapidly progressive crescentic glomerulonephritis. The patient was treated with plasmapheresis and immunosuppressive drugs--intravenous cyclophosphamide and methyl prednisolone. The clinical, haematological and biochemical paramete...
متن کاملCoexistent Membranous Nephropathy with Doubly ANCA-Associated Crescentic Glomerulonephritis: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Introduction: Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most common causes of the nephrotic syndrome in nondiabetic, Caucasian adults. Pauci-immune necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis (PNCGN) typically present with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. Coexistent MN and PNCGN is a rare occurrence. We report a case of both MPOand PR3-ANCA associated NCGN with MN that presented as rapidly pr...
