The antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides.
Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis, and Churg-Strauss syndrome are small- to medium-vessel vasculitides linked by overlapping pathology and the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). Commonly referred to as the ANCA-associated vasculitides, these diseases are challenging to diagnose and to treat. Distinguishing the ANCA-associated vasculitides from other forms...
متن کاملTreatment 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 کاملNecrotizing and crescentic lupus nephritis with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody seropositivity.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Lupus nephritis is a classic immune complex glomerulonephritis. In contrast, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies are associated with necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis, in the absence of significant immune deposits. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies are detected by indirect immunofluorescence in 20% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. We rep...
متن کاملA patient with myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive polyangiitis who developed sensorineural hearing loss and scleritis.
A 70-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of sudden hearing loss. She was treated with intratympanic dexamethasone, but her hearing impairment progressed. After admission, she developed scleritis of her left eye. Laboratory findings included elevated white blood cell count and C-reactive protein level, microhematuria, and proteinuria. Serology was positive for myeloperoxidase ant...
