Organizing pneumonia associated with myeloperoxidase anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody
Organizing pneumonia (OP) is a clinicopathological entity that occurs idiopathically or in association with several conditions, but there are few reports about myeloperoxidase anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA)-associated OP. We describe a patient with OP whose clinical conditions improved spontaneously. Moreover, serum MPO-ANCA titers paralleled the clinical activity of the diseas...
متن کاملMyeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis with membranous nephropathy in remission.
A 47-year-old woman developed pulmonary hemorrhage and an increase in proteinuria during remission of membranous nephropathy. Renal biopsy revealed crescentic glomerulonephritis. She also had a high perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody level, so a diagnosis of myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis was made. After immunosuppressive therapy w...
متن کاملClinical analysis of patients with myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
This prospective study analyzed the clinical characteristics of myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA)-associated vasculitis and explored the relationship between MPO-ANCA and clinical manifestations of the associated vasculitis in 132 p-ANCA and MPO-ANCA-positive patients (average age, 62.3 ± 14.8 years) who were initially diagnosed with ANCA-associated vasculitis. The ...
متن کاملMyeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive crescentic glomerulonephritis associated with benzylthiouracil therapy: report of the first case.
Grave’s disease is a common form of autoimmune thyroiditis which has been successfully treated with anti-thyroid drugs for more than half a century. However, these drugs may cause major complications including agranulocytosis, hepatotoxicity and immunological disturbances such as lupus erythematosus syndrome. Anti myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA) mediated crescenti...
متن کاملThe antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides.
Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis, and Churg-Strauss syndrome are small- to medium-vessel vasculitides linked by overlapping pathology and the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). Commonly referred to as the ANCA-associated vasculitides, these diseases are challenging to diagnose and to treat. Distinguishing the ANCA-associated vasculitides from other forms...
