On the basis of two cases of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with over 50% crescents in percutaneous renal biopsy, anti-GBM antibodies in one case and progressive renal failure in both cases, successful treatment with plasma exchanges and aggressive immunosuppression according to our own protocol is presented and discussed with literature.
