ABSTRACT

El síndrome pulmón-riñón es una entidad infrecuente, que comprende un gran espectro de patologías, como las vasculitis asociadas a ANCA y la enfermedad por anticuerpos antimembrana basal glomerular entre otras. Se describen en esta serie 12 casos donde las entidades más prevalentes fueron las antes mencionadas, observándose además un caso de lupus y uno de granulomatosis con poliangeítis, que se encuentran dentro de las causas menos frecuentes. La forma de presentación clínica inicial fue simultánea renal y pulmonar en 5/12 pacientes y renal en 7/12 de los mismos. El diagnóstico temprano de dichas patologías basándose en criterios clínicos, radiológicos, de laboratorio e histológicos, permite instaurar terapéuticas tempranas como la inmunosupresión y plasmaféresis, pudiendo prevenir complicaciones tales como las infecciones y la insuficiencia renal crónica terminal, siendo las primeras la principal causa de muerte (AU)


Pulmonary-renal syndrome is an infrequent condition. It includes a wide variety of conditions such as ANCA (antineutro-phil cytoplasmic autoantibody) associated with systemic vasculitis and anti-GBM (anti-glomerular basement membrane) disease among others. In this series we describe twelve cases, in which the most prevalent diseases were the above mentioned as well as one case of lupus and one of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (these being less frequent causes). The clinical presentation was both renal and pulmonary simultaneously in five of twelve patients and renal in seven of twelve patients. Early diagnosis of this condition on the basis of clinical, radiological, histological and analytic criteria allows early treatments such as immunosuppression and plasma exchange, thus avoiding complications such as infections (the main cause of death) and terminal chronic renal failure (AU)
