American Journal of Nephrology
|January 1, 1987
Abstract:
A 53-year-old woman with Henoch-Schönlein purpura presented with massive intrapulmonary hemorrhage and renal failure. Renal pathology revealed diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis with granular deposition of immunoglobulin on immunofluorescent staining. Therapy with oral prednisolone resulted in resolution of the pulmonary lesions and renal failure.
