Abstract
We report a myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-positive rheumatoid arthritis patient who developed necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis. Steroid therapy was given combined with an immunosuppressant agent, and double-filtration plasmapheresis was started with the aim of removing antibodies from the blood. This therapeutic regimen was found to be useful.Entities:
