Perinuclear Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (P-ANCA): Clinical Significance and Relation to Antibodies Against Myeloid Lysosomal Enzymes

  • Chapter
ANCA-Associated Vasculitides

Summary

In a prospective study of 27 months duration p-ANCA were found in 120 patients. 35% of these patients had vasculitis and/or glomerulonephritis. 28% of the p-ANCA positive sera reacted with myeloid lysosomal enzymes.
