Immune complex glomerulopathy in a child with food hypersensitivity

Collapsing Glomerulopathy in a Child with Galloway-Mowat Syndrome

Galloway-Mowat syndrome (GMS) is an autosomal recessive disorder with a poor prognosis that was first defined as a triad of central nervous system involvement, hiatal hernia, and nephrotic syndrome. However, this syndrome is now known to have a heterogeneous clinical presentation. The nephrotic syndrome is steroid resistant and is responsible for the outcome. The combination of collapsing glome...

Hypersensitivity with Recombinant Soluble Targeting Immune Complex-Mediated

Salicylate Food Intolerance and Aspirin Hypersensitivity in Nasal Polyposis

Background: A clear association between allergy and nasal polyposis (NP) is not determined and the role of food intolerance in patients with NP is not investigated by oral food challenge (OFC). Objective: To investigate the relation of salicylate food intolerance and atopy in patients with NP according to recurrence and aspirin sensitivity. Methods: A cross sectional multicenter study was d...

Captopril-induced hypersensitivity lung disease. An immune-complex-mediated phenomenon.

Captopril has not yet been included in the list of drugs causing hypersensitivity lung disease. We report a patient with hypertension, congestive heart failure, and chronic renal failure who, when rechallenged with captopril, developed upper lung field infiltrates associated with productive cough and striking peripheral eosinophilia. Gallium scan, transbronchial biopsy histologic findings, and ...

intraoperative anaphylactic shock in a child with no history of type i hypersensitivity

natural rubber latex is the second most implicated agent in intraoperative anaphylactic reactions. this report describes a case of intraoperative anaphylaxis occurring in a non-atopic fourteen-year-old girl undergoing multiple surgical procedures, but without spina bifida, in which latex surgical gloves were the main culprit for the anaphylactic reactions. clinical manifestations of an anaphyla...
