摘要
A 31-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). She was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and class V lupus nephritis. She had no aggravated SLE activity, Shiga toxin positivity, ADAMTS13 abnormality, or other causes of secondary TMA. Plasma exchange partially improved TMA, and eculizumab was introduced for suspected atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), as eculizumab was effective in suppressing the TMA activity. A kidney biopsy revealed diffusely organized crescents (pseudotubulization) with glomerular and arteriolar endothelial injury and subepithelial immune deposits. Thus, this was a rare case of lupus nephritis presenting as TMA with pseudotubulization possibly caused by aHUS.
