Renal 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 کاملGenetic aspects of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
The genetics of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a complex area of investigation because of the low frequency of AAVs, the rarity of familial cases and the complexity of disease phenotypes. However, recent studies have been able to gather significant numbers of patients, and multicentre collaborative efforts have allowed the performance of two genome-wi...
متن کاملAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis: where to go?
Enormous progress has been made during the last 25 years in our understanding of the aetiopathogenesis of the anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV). This has led to improvements in early diagnosis, treatment and secondary prevention of these diseases. Nevertheless, there are still unmet needs in the AAV. With respect to diagnosis and follow-up, sensitive ...
متن کاملRenal transplantation in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to provide a state-of-the-art perspective on the role of kidney transplantation in cases of end-stage kidney disease due to antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis. We focus on patient and graft survival in recent years, timing of transplant, impact of ANCA status, and relapse of vasculitis in the allograft. RECENT FINDINGS Graft and patient ou...
متن کاملAnti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis in Mexican Population: Clinical Phenotype, Autoantibody Profile and Renal Characteristics
Objective: To describe the clinical, serological characteristics, and renal histology in Mexican patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV). Methods: Forty patients with diagnosis of AAV and renal biopsy, followed at a tertiary care center in Mexico City from 2002-2012 were retrospectively studied. Demographics, comorbidities, clinical, laboratory varia...
