glomerulonefritis rápidamente progresiva
Scope note: Glomerulonefritis, generalmente del tipo histológico semilunar proliferativo y generalizado, de curso rápidamente progresivo, caracterizada por la presencia de anticuerpos anti-MBG circulantes y depósitos lineales de inmunoglobulina y complemento a lo largo de la membrana basal glomerular. Cuando se asocia a hemorragia pulmonar, la afección recibe la denominación de SÍNDROME DE GOODPASTURE. (Dorland, 28a ed)

Scope note: An autoimmune disease of the KIDNEY and the LUNG. It is characterized by the presence of circulating autoantibodies targeting the epitopes in the non-collagenous domains of COLLAGEN TYPE IV in the basement membranes of kidney glomeruli (KIDNEY GLOMERULUS) and lung alveoli (PULMONARY ALVEOLI), and the subsequent destruction of these basement membranes. Clinical features include pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage and glomerulonephritis.
