Microscopic polyangiitis causing diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis.
Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage complicating small vessel vasculitis is a life-threatening emergency and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients who develop rapidly progressive dyspnea with alveolar opacities on chest imaging. In these patients, the coexistence of pulmonary and renal involvement suggests a multisystem disease. We present a case of a man who presented to our h...
متن کاملDiffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage in a 39-year-old Woman: Unusual Initial Presentation of Microscopic Polyangiitis
Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is a necrotizing vasculitis involving the small vessels without granulomatous inflammation. Most MPA initially presents with renal involvement without pulmonary involvement. Isolated and initially presenting alveolar hemorrhage is very rare. The patient was a 39-year-old female with a progressive cough, dyspnea, and blood-tinged sputum for the previous 5 days. We ...
متن کامل[A case of microscopic polyangiitis relapsed with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis].
The patient was a 63-year-old woman. She was admitted to our hospital with acute renal failure and multiple mononeuritis in 2002. She was diagnosed as microscopic polyangiitis based on positive for MPO-ANCA. Remission was induced by combination therapy with methylprednisolone pulse therapy and plasma exchange. Because condition of the disease was stable, prednisolone was discontinued from Augus...
متن کاملMicroscopic polyangiitis: Atypical presentation with extensive small bowel necrosis, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, and renal failure
Microscopic polyangiitis is an uncommon systemic vasculitis of varying severity that is associated with myeloperoxidase (MPO) and perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic (p-ANCA) antibodies. The most commonly affected organs are the lungs and kidneys. We report on a very unusual case of microscopic polyangiitis presenting with severe mesenteric ischemia in addition to diffuse alveolar hemorrhage...
متن کاملDiffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage due to Acute Mitral Valve Regurgitation
Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) can be caused by several etiologies including vasculitis, drug exposure, anticoagulants, infections, mitral valve stenosis, and regurgitation. Chronic mitral valve regurgitation (MR) has been well documented as an etiological factor for DAH, but there have been only a few cases which have reported acute mitral valve regurgitation as an etiology of DAH. Acute mi...
