Coexistence of anti-glomerular basement membrane disease and IgA nephropathy: an illustrative case and comprehensive literature review.
Renal Failure 2024 December
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by the presence of positive anti-GBM autoantibodies, linear deposition of immunoglobulin G (IgG) along the GBM and severe kidney injury. In a limited number of cases, the association of anti-GBM disease with other glomerulonephritis has been reported. Herein, we present the case of a 66-year-old female patient with progressive worsen kidney function and decreased urine output. A renal biopsy revealed crescent glomerulonephritis with lineal IgG deposition along the GBM and mesangial IgA deposition, which supported the diagnosis of concurrent anti-GBM disease and IgA nephropathy (IgAN). In an extensive literature review, we identified a total of thirty-nine patients were reported anti-GBM disease combined with IgAN. The clinical characteristics of these patients demonstrate that the anti-GBM disease combined with IgAN tends to be milder with a more indolent course and a better prognosis than the classic anti-GBM disease, and its potential pathogenesis deserves to be further explored.
