Necrotizing ANCA-Positive Glomerulonephritis Secondary to Culture-Negative Endocarditis
Infective endocarditis (IE) and small-vessel vasculitis may have similar clinical features, including glomerulonephritis. Furthermore the association between IE and ANCA positivity is well documented, making differential diagnosis between IE- and ANCA-associated vasculitis particularly difficult, especially in case of culture-negative IE. We report on one patient with glomerulonephritis seconda...
متن کاملInfective endocarditis mimics ANCA associated glomerulonephritis
Background: Sub-acute bacterial endocarditis (SBE) rarely presents with features of a small vessel vasculitis. Patients with SBE can also develop multiple serological abnormalities including ANCA. In this report, we present a case of infective endocarditis mimicked ANCA associated glomerulonephritis.Case presentation: A 57-year old male with a clinical picture of rapidly progressive renal failu...
متن کاملMembranous glomerulonephritis with ANCA-associated necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Only rare cases of concurrent membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis (NCGN) have been reported. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The authors report the clinical and pathologic findings in 14 patients with MGN and ANCA-associated NCGN. RESULTS The cohort...
متن کاملTouch not the cat bot a glove*: ANCA-positive pauci-immune necrotizing glomerulonephritis secondary to Bartonella henselae
A 36-year-old male presented with a secondary, but anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) (proteinase-3) positive, vasculitis with renal insufficiency due to a pauci-immune necrotizing glomerulonephritis. An infective process was initially excluded by blood cultures and an echocardiogram prior to immunosuppression. The patient's condition failed to improve and re-evaluation confirmed infec...
