Myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated crescentic glomerulonephritis in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
BACKGROUND Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an inherited disorder that is characterized by the development of cysts in the kidneys and other organs. Urinary protein excretion is usually less than 1 g/day, and ADPKD is rarely associated with nephrotic syndrome or rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN). To date, myeloperoxidase (MPO)-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibo...
متن کاملMyeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive crescentic glomerulonephritis associated with benzylthiouracil therapy: report of the first case.
Grave’s disease is a common form of autoimmune thyroiditis which has been successfully treated with anti-thyroid drugs for more than half a century. However, these drugs may cause major complications including agranulocytosis, hepatotoxicity and immunological disturbances such as lupus erythematosus syndrome. Anti myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA) mediated crescenti...
متن کاملAntineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies crescentic allograft glomerulonephritis after sofosbuvir therapy
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are well known to be associated with several types of vasculitis, including pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis, a form of rapid progressive glomerular nephritis (RPGN). ANCA vasculitis has also been reported after administration of propylthiouracil, hydralazine, cocaine (adulterated with levimasole), allopurinol, penicillamine and few other d...
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...
متن کاملAntineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–associated Glomerulonephritis Complicated by Pneumatosis Intestinalis
Pneumatosis intestinalis is a characteristic imaging phenomenon indicating the presence of gas in the bowel wall. The link between pneumatosis intestinalis and various kinds of autoimmune diseases has been reported anecdotally, while information regarding the cases with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis complicated by concurrent pneumatosis intestinalis is lacki...
