Autoimmunity in rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
Kidney International, 1989 Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is characterized histologically by focal necrotizing glomerular lesions with crescent formation, and clinically by the development of renal failure within weeks or months. Although RPGN may be associated with a variety of systemic diseases, or develop on a background of primary glomerulonephritis, two ...
