Pauciimmune vasculitis encompasses a group of systemic necrotizing vasculitis with paucity of immune complex deposition on microscopic examination. All these diseases have anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) positivity, hence, also termed as ANCA associated vasculitides. It encompasses a spectrum of...

vasculitisSUMMARY:Aim:聽 Pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis (CrGN) is frequently associated with circulating anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). However, in patients with ANCA-negative pauci-immune CrGN, the pathogenesis is not clear. Anti-endothelial cell antibodies (AECA) have been ...
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis rarely affects females of reproductive age. A 28-year-old African American woman presented at 8 weeks of gestation with intractable vomiting attributed to hyperemesis gravidarum. She was found to have acute kidney injury that was unresponsive...

It is either the renal manifestation of Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis of Churg-Strauss syndrome, or a renal-limited vasculitis. In this review, the histopathologic changes seen in renal biopsies of patients with pauci-immune glomerulonephritis are described. The authors also describe...

The majority of patients with PICGN have glomerular diseases as a part of a systemic small vessel vasculitis, a minority may present as renal-limited vasculitis. In north-east India, there are still no major studies in this group of patients. Therefore, our study involving north-east Indian ...
