Goodpascher syndrome: a clinical case

Abstract

Goodpasture syndrome refers to systemic vasculitis with small-caliber vascular lesions, immunocomplex vasculitis. Immunocomplex vasculitis - vasculitis with moderate or pronounced deposits of immunoglobulins and/or complement components in the vascular wall, mainly small vessels (capillaries, venules, arterioles and small arteries). Glomerulonephritis is often observed. Diagnosis is difficult due to the rare frequency of the disease. The article presents a clinical case of Goodpascher syndrome.
