Pathological classification of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis.
What drives human beings to classify? It seems as if it is within our nature to do so. Clinical classification systems for the systemic vasculitides were composed a long time ago, and they are constantly being revised and altered. The histopathological features of many diseases are so diverse that classification is called for. The histopathological classification for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic...
متن کاملClinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of renal thrombotic microangiopathy in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-associated glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) has been mainly reported in isolated case reports. The aim of this study was to analyze clinical and pathologic characteristics and prognosis of patients with renal TMA in ANCA-associated GN in a large cohort of Chinese patients. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Clinical and renal histo...
متن کاملA Case of Membranous Glomerulonephritis with Superimposed Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Rapidly Progressive Crescentic Glomerulonephritis
Idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis (IMGN) is commonly diagnosed in adults with proteinuria. Rapid deterioration of renal function is a rare complication of IMGN, except when accompanied by renal vein thrombosis, malignant hypertension, or other underlying disease, including lupus nephritis. Here, we present a case of rapid deterioration of renal function in a patient with MGN superimposed...
متن کاملAnti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody in Behçet’s Disease
Anti neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) is strongly associated with some vasculitic disorders. Behçet's disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology. In this study, ANCA was found to be positive in 8 out of 66 patients (10.2%) with BD by combination testing consisting of immunofluorescence and ELISA [one patient showed an atypical pattern by indirect immunofloresence techique, ...
متن کاملAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated pauci-immune glomerulonephritis in a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
A 71-year-old woman presented to us in August 2012 with a rash over both lower limbs. Blood tests revealed leukocytosis with white cell count of 22 x 109 /L (neutrophil 1.6 x 109 /L, lymphocytes 20 x 109 /L). Serum creatinine level was 53 μmol/L and serum albumin 42 g/L. Urinalysis showed no albuminuria or microscopic haematuria. Bone marrow biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic...
