Case Report: Uncommon Complications in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis

Logan Oliver, MD, & Jason J. Weiner, MD, FACP, FACR  |  December 9, 2024

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by inflammation of small- and medium-sized vessels. ANCA-associated vasculitis can lead to multisystem organ complications, including life-threatening pulmonary hemorrhage, renal failure and death. We present a case of ANCA-associated vasculitis complicated by complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (c-TMA). Of the rheumatic diseases, systemic lupus erythematosus…

GPA classically presents with multi-organ involvement. The first description of GPA defined a triad of features: 1) systemic necrotizing angiitis, 2) necrotizing inflammation of the respiratory tract and 3) necrotizing glomerulonephritis.1 Few cases of digital…
