Plasmapheresis in Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage as Perinuclear Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody‐Associated Vasculitis Relapse on Hemodialysis

Abstract: Unlike Goodpasture's syndrome with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH), there are scarce reports on the use of plasmapheresis for patients with a recurrence of DAH associated with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated small vessel vasculitis (AAV) on hemodialysis. We report a case of a relapse of perinuclear-AAV with DAH, five months after starting hemodialysis. The patient received apheresis and induction immunosuppressive therapy, added to a short course of daily hemodialysis treatments. The DA… Show more

“…The "right time" means that the administration of MTP and cyclophosphamide should be started as early as possible; we suggest that therapy within 3 days of admission would be optimal timing. Although there has not been sufficient evidence to support the efficacy of plasmapheresis in patients with DAH, early plasmapheresis to remove pathogenic antibodies has been recognized as an effective and fast-acting adjuvant therapy in some studies [14][15][16].…”
