摘要
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 was started, the pulmonary hemorrhage resolved and her proteinuria decreased. Renal biopsy was repeated after treatment and showed histological improvement. This case suggests that there may be a relationship between membranous nephropathy and myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis.
