Alveolar hemorrhage in IgA nephropathy treated with plasmapheresis.

B Afessa1, R G Cowart, S M Koenig.   

Abstract

A 66-year-old man had diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis due to IgA nephropathy. The diffuse alveolar hemorrhage resolved after high-dose corticosteroid therapy, and renal function improved after plasmapheresis. This response suggests an adjunctive role for plasmapheresis in the treatment of patients presenting this rare clinical picture.
