Renal 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 کاملThe Pathogenesis of Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody Renal Vasculitis
The vasculitides comprise a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by inflammation and destruction of blood vessels. Vessels of any size can be involved which explains the diverse spectrum of clinical diseases attributed to vasculitis. While the immunological basis of disease for vasculitis was recognized over thirty years ago,[1] a standardized classification system was only adopted nea...
متن کاملTreatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The primary idiopathic small-vessel vasculitis syndromes include granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Churg-Strauss syndrome, and microscopic polyangiitis. These disorders are commonly referred to as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides and prominently affect the pulmonary vasculature. Although significant progress has been made in the management of ...
متن کاملMyeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated systemic vasculitis developed from ANCA negative renal limited vasculitis
RATIONALE The relationship between antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) and ANCA-negative vasculitis has not been elucidated. PATIENT CONCERNS A 64-year-old female with edema and proteinuria was admitted. A kidney biopsy indicated focal proliferative nephritis with crescents in 25% of glomeruli. Serum ANCA was negative. Eighteen months later, systemic sym...
متن کاملStress and Disease Onset in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis
Objective To explore the potential contribution of stress as a trigger for disease onset in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV). Methods 53 AAV and 85 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients as well as 53 healthy controls (HC) were thoroughly asked for the number and impact of stressful life events, coping strategies, and available social support 12...
