Microscopic polyarteritis: a forgotten aetiology of haemoptysis and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis.

A 76 year old white woman died from massive pulmonary haemorrhage nine days after she was admitted to Parkland Memorial Hospital for evaluation of haemoptysis and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. The differential diagnosis of haemoptysis with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis is presented with particular emphasis on Wegener's granulomatosis and microscopic polyarteritis. Necropsy sh...

Nefro - 22-2.indd

Pauci -immune necrotising glomerulonephritis with extracapillary proliferation is a common renal histological manifestation of systemic vasculitis. Although its aetiopathogenesis is not well known, it is possible that environmental factors may have a bearing on genetically predisposed subjects, since there are many familial cases of systemic vasculitis. The frequent association between systemic...

Diagnosis and classification of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (aka Wegener's granulomatosis).

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA, formerly known as Wegener's Granulomatosis) is an autoimmune small vessel vasculitis which is highly associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). The hallmarks of this condition are systemic necrotising vasculitis, necrotising granulomatous inflammation, and necrotising glomerulonephritis. The aetiology of granulomatosis with polyangiitis...

Chance Finding of Proteinuria Leads to the Diagnosis of ANCA Associated Vasculitis

Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) was recognised with a high early mortality rate and the renal involvement was characterised by segmental necrotizing glomerulonephritis with high positivity of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) and a broad spectrum of signs and symptoms including fever and malaise. We reported here a woman with ANCA associated with MPA diagnosed by a chance finding of pro...

MPO-C-ANCA-associated necrotising and crescentic glomerulonephritis

The patterns of ANCA staining usually relate closely to antibodies against myeloperoxidase and proteinase-3. C-ANCA is mainly antibodies to proteinase-3 and P-ANCA is antibodies to myeloperoxidase. C-ANCA with antibodies to MPO with clinical sequelae is unusual.

Myeloperoxidase-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...
