We examined a 72-year-old man suffering from chronic interstitial pneumonia with crescentic glomerulonephritis associated with perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (P-ANCA). Ten years before admission, he was given a diagnosis of interstitial pneumonia, but received no medication. He was admitted to our hospital because of a high fever and back pain. Antibiotics were used, but without success. The serum P-ANCA titer was high, and examination of a kidney biopsy specimen showed crescentic glomerulonephritis. Computed tomography of the chest showed that the lungs had a honecomblike appearance, and examination of a specimen obtained by transbronchial lung biopsy showed interstitial fibrosis. This case shows that interstitial pneumonia can be associated with P-ANCA. It is important to be a wore that crescentic glomerulonephritis associated with P-ANCA can develop in patients with interstitial pneumonia.

D008297 Male Males
D005921 Glomerulonephritis Inflammation of the renal glomeruli (KIDNEY GLOMERULUS) that can be classified by the type of glomerular injuries including antibody deposition, complement activation, cellular proliferation, and glomerulosclerosis. These structural and functional abnormalities usually lead to HEMATURIA; PROTEINURIA; HYPERTENSION; and RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Bright Disease,Kidney Scarring,Glomerulonephritides,Scarring, Kidney

D017563 Lung Diseases, Interstitial A diverse group of lung diseases that affect the lung parenchyma. They are characterized by an initial inflammation of PULMONARY ALVEOLI that extends to the interstitium and beyond leading to diffuse PULMONARY FIBROSIS. Interstitial lung diseases are classified by their etiology (known or unknown causes), and radiological-pathological features.

D019268 Antibodies, Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Autoantibodies directed against cytoplasmic constituents of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES and/or MONOCYTES. They are used as specific markers for GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS and other diseases, though their pathophysiological role is not clear. ANCA are routinely detected by indirect immunofluorescence with three different patterns: c-ANCA (cytoplasmic), p-ANCA (perinuclear), and atypical ANCA.
