Necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis related to sarcoidosis: a case report
INTRODUCTION Renal injury due to sarcoidosis develops in less than a quarter of patients with this systemic disease. In most cases, granulomatous tissue alters the production of vitamin D, which leads to hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, and nephrolithiasis. Granulomatous interstitial nephritis is another well-recognized pathological process associated with sarcoidosis. However, a glomerular pa...
متن کاملSuperimposed Polymyositis in a Patient with Myeloperoxidase-Related Crescentic Glomerulonephritis
Renal involvement especially glomerulonephropathy in polymyositis or dermatomyositis is considered rare. Crescentic glomerulonephritis is even more so. Herein, we report a patient who was diagnosed with concurrent polymyositis and myeloperoxidase-related crescentic glomerulonephritis. We discuss the association between polymyositis or dermatomyositis and renal involvement, glomerulonephropathy,...
متن کاملTissue culture of isolated glomeruli in experimental crescentic glomerulonephritis
As a means of studying mechanisms of response to injury in glomerulonephritis, glomeruli from normal sheep and rabbits and from sheep and rabbits with experimental crescentic glomerulonephritis have been isolated and grown in tissue culture. The cellular outgrowths from the normal and diseased glomeruli have been compared. The outgrowth of glomeruli from normal animals contained only two cell p...

متن کاملAnti-GBM-associated crescentic glomerulonephritis with discrete IgG deposition, but with no electron-dense material in glomeruli.
Crescentic glomerulonephritis is characterized by extracapillary proliferation resulting from severe inflammatory injury of various aetiologies. It is usually rapidly progressive. Meanwhile, anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibody-mediated glomerular lesions induce crescentic glomerulonephritis. When associated with pulmonary haemorrhage, it is given the eponym 'Goodpasture's syndrome'...
