Hemocholecyst complicated in a hemodialysis patient with microscopic polyangiitis

Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is a systemic vasculitis associated with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, and it involves multiple organs, including the kidneys and lungs. We report on the case of a 72-year-old woman with MPA who developed hemocholecyst in addition to alveolar hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. Although her renal function was not salvaged, the alveolar hemorrhage and hemocholecyst were treated conservatively. Clinicians should consider the possibility of hemocholecyst in patients with MPA complaining of abdominal pain.
