| Abstract |
| Abstract Glomerulonephritis, such as membranous
nephropathy, IgA nephropathy, and p-antineutrophil cytoplasmic
autoantibody (ANCA)-related crescentic glomerulonephritis, has
been shown to occur in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the
occurrence of two types of glomerulonephritis in a patient with
RA is rarely observed. Here, we describe a patient with RA who
developed crescentic glomerulonephritis with antimyeloperoxidase
(MPO) antibodies during the course of IgA nephropathy. This case
indicates that crescentic glomerulonephritis and IgA nephropathy
may occur together in association with p-ANCA in RA. |
