Infection-Related Glomerulonephritis Mimicking ANCA-Associated Vasculitis in a Patient with HIV and Multisystem Infection (KIDNEY WEEK 2026) - Oct 2, 2026 - Abstract #FR-PO0745; Pres time: Oct 23, 2026; 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM; Location: Exhibit Hall A, Convention Center; "Given his persistent hemoptysis and positive ANCA titres, the patient was initiated on high-dose corticosteroids and rituximab for suspected AAV...Infection can induce both ANCA seropositivity and glomerular injury difficult to distinguish from vasculitis on biopsy, which has been described in cases of infective endocarditis. In this patient, reliance on serology and renal pathology alone could have led to further immunosuppression in an already immunocompromised patient, highlighting the importance of multi-organ evaluation in diagnostically challenging cases."
