  • Title: Coexistent Wegener's granulomatosis and anti-glomerular basement membrane disease.
    Author: Wahls TL, Bonsib SM, Schuster VL.
    Journal: Hum Pathol; 1987 Feb; 18(2):202-5. PubMed ID: 3542802.
    Abstract:
    Wegener's granulomatosis and Goodpasture's syndrome represent two major causes of a pulmonary-renal syndrome. We describe the clinical course and morphologic features of a patient in whom pulmonary manifestations of Wegener's granulomatosis developed and were followed six months later by anti-glomerular basement membrane disease. Although we regard this as a unique and probably fortuitous association, a genetic predisposition or a secondary form of anti-GBM disease cannot be excluded.
