A Case of Anti Glomerular Basement Membrane (GBM) Negative Goodpasture’s Disease

Abstract

Megan Borkum, Gregory L Calligaro and Gregory Symons

Goodpasture's disease is a fulminant rapidly progressive disease characterized by autoantibodies to the alpha-3 chain of type IV collagen (Goodpasture's antigen). It can present as a glomerulonephritis alone, or as a pulmonaryrenal syndrome with alveolar haemorrhage. We report here a classical case of Goodpasture's disease presenting as a pulmonary-renal syndrome with serum anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibody negativity and positive perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (p-ANCA).
