Systemic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis associated with lymphoid neoplasia.
Two cases of systemic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis in the setting of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy type T cell lymphoma are reported. The two patients had fever of unknown origin associated with cutaneous vasculitis and "pulmonary-renal syndrome" with alveolar haemorrhage. Despite anti-infectious treatments, steroids, and chemother...
متن کاملRenal involvement in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody associated vasculitis.
Renal involvement is a common and often severe complication of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) associated vasculitides (AAV). With the exception of Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS), where kidney involvement is not a prominent feature, renal disease is present in about 70% of patients with Wegener's granulomatosis, now called granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and in almost 100% ...
متن کاملPulmonary Fibrosis in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCA)-Associated Vasculitis
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is an uncommon manifestation observed in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), particularly microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). While patients with PF associated with AAV seem to e Brun, MD, Philip D, avid Saadoun, MD, PhD patients with PF associated with AAV, fulfilling the American College of Rheumatology criteria and/or Ch...
متن کاملRefractory disease in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Induction treatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV) is not always successful and nonresponding patients are considered refractory. RECENT FINDINGS Refractory disease should be subdefined to the treatment that was received. Cyclophosphamide refractory AAV occurs in up to 5% of patients. Many more patients develop contraindications t...
متن کاملRemission in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated systemic vasculitis.
The definition of remission in patients with systemic vasculitis must be distinguished from the term "cure," which implies that patients are well and not requiring ongoing therapy. Remission should be defined using a standardised approach to measuring clinical disease activity, and the definition should be qualified by the duration of the remission and the type of maintenance therapy required t...
