Treatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The primary idiopathic small-vessel vasculitis syndromes include granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Churg-Strauss syndrome, and microscopic polyangiitis. These disorders are commonly referred to as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides and prominently affect the pulmonary vasculature. Although significant progress has been made in the management of ...
متن کاملRenal transplantation in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to provide a state-of-the-art perspective on the role of kidney transplantation in cases of end-stage kidney disease due to antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis. We focus on patient and graft survival in recent years, timing of transplant, impact of ANCA status, and relapse of vasculitis in the allograft. RECENT FINDINGS Graft and patient ou...
متن کاملAntineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody Vasculitis Associated with Influenza Vaccination
Background: Administration of influenza vaccines has been associated with the development of autoantibodies and autoimmune rheumatic disease. Patients: We discuss 2 patients who developed antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) in temporal association with influenza immunization. AAV was diagnosed 2 and 4 weeks after immunization in these patients. Both patients had rena...
متن کاملHLA-B52-positive Aortitis with Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-associated Vasculitis
A 73-year-old man presented with a 1-month history of fever and numbness of the bilateral upper and lower extremities. Laboratory tests showed positive myeloperoxidaseantineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) results (296 U/ mL). Computed tomography (CT) showed wall thickening in the thoracic aorta and common carotid arteries (Picture A), and gallium single-photon emission CT/CT showed accumul...
متن کاملPeripheral CD5+ B cells in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
OBJECTIVE CD5+ B cells have been conceptualized as a possible surrogate for Breg cells. The aim of the present study was to determine the utility of CD5+ B cells as biomarkers in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). METHODS The absolute and relative numbers (percentages) of CD5+ B cells (explanatory variables) were measured longitudinally during 18 months in 197 pa...
