  • Title: Systemic lupus erythematosus with membranous glomerulonephritis and uterine vasculitis.
    Author: Feriozzi S, Muda AO, Amini M, Faraggiana T, Ancarani E.
    Journal: Am J Kidney Dis; 1997 Feb; 29(2):277-9. PubMed ID: 9016901.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of lupus vasculitis with uterine localization and concurrent membranous nephropathy. Immunofluorescence study suggested the occurrence of an immune complex nephropathy and a pauci-immune pathogenesis of vasculitis. Our case points out the event of tissue damage in two organs mediated by different pathogenetic mechanisms. In addition, uterine vasculitis without pregnancy may be observed in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus nephritis.
