[The syndrome of renal and pulmonary vasculitis with positive neutrophil anticytoplasmic antibodies and antibasement membrane antibodies. A case report].
The authors present a case of Goodpasture's syndrome with necrotizing vasculitis of spleen and appendix. Serological examination shows antiglomerular basement membrane antibodies and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies. The authors review the literature to establish if this or other similar cases can be considered a distinct disease entity. The authors also mention the laboratory methods that are currently being used to classify more precisely the vasculitides associated with glomerulonephritis.
