Pauci-Immune Crescentic Glomerulonephritis in Connective Tissue Disease
Pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis is commonly seen in ANCA-associated vasculitis but it is rarely seen during the course of other connective tissue diseases like lupus or Sjogren's syndrome or MCTD. We report 3 cases of pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis in patients with connective tissue disease other than vasculitis. We reviewed literature and made summary of previously repor...
متن کاملMembranous glomerulopathy with superimposed pauci-immune necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis
We describe a 61-year-old woman with acute kidney injury, nephrotic range proteinuria and hematuria. Kidney biopsy showed membranous glomerulopathy (MG) with superimposed pauci-immune necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis (PNCGN). Coexistent MG and PNCGN is a rare occurrence. The diagnosis of such an exceptionally rare combination relies on the combination of renal biopsy findings and serol...
متن کاملPauci-Immune Crescentic Glomerulonephritis: An ANCA-Associated Vasculitis
Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is a syndrome signified by a precipitous loss of renal function, with features of glomerulonephritis including dysmorphic erythrocyturia and glomerular proteinuria. RPGN is associated with extensive crescent formation, and, thus, the clinical term RPGN is often used interchangeably with the pathologic term crescentic glomerulonephritis (CGN). From a...
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 کاملAntineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-negative Pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis.
Pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis (CrGN) is one of the most common causes of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. The majority of patients with pauci-immune CrGN had circulating antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA). However, patients with ANCA-negative pauci-immune CrGN were not investigated fully. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of this subgroup of patient...
