Childhood Cogan syndrome with aortitis and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis
Cogan syndrome is a systemic disease manifesting interstitial keratitis, sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus, and rotatory vertigo. Renal complications of this syndrome are very rare. We encountered an adolescent with Cogan syndrome complicated by aortitis and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis. At the age of 14, the patient showed proteinuria in a screen...
متن کاملPathological classification of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis.
What drives human beings to classify? It seems as if it is within our nature to do so. Clinical classification systems for the systemic vasculitides were composed a long time ago, and they are constantly being revised and altered. The histopathological features of many diseases are so diverse that classification is called for. The histopathological classification for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic...
متن کاملA Case of Membranous Glomerulonephritis with Superimposed Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Rapidly Progressive Crescentic Glomerulonephritis
Idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis (IMGN) is commonly diagnosed in adults with proteinuria. Rapid deterioration of renal function is a rare complication of IMGN, except when accompanied by renal vein thrombosis, malignant hypertension, or other underlying disease, including lupus nephritis. Here, we present a case of rapid deterioration of renal function in a patient with MGN superimposed...
متن کاملAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated pauci-immune glomerulonephritis in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
A 71-year-old woman presented to us in August 2012 with a rash over both lower limbs. Blood tests revealed leukocytosis with white cell count of 22 x 109 /L (neutrophil 1.6 x 109 /L, lymphocytes 20 x 109 /L). Serum creatinine level was 53 μmol/L and serum albumin 42 g/L. Urinalysis showed no albuminuria or microscopic haematuria. Bone marrow biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic...
متن کاملA case of myeloperoxidase anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis and concurrent membranous nephropathy
BACKGROUND Myeloperoxidase anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis (MPO-ANCA-GN) and concurrent membranous nephropathy (MN) are very rare combination. Their causal relationship has been suggested, but not determined. CASE PRESENTATION A 73-years-old male with 5-year history of proteinuria underwent an operation for his sigmoid colon cancer. Seven months later, he wa...
