Abstract
|
|
|
A 29-year-old male patient was admitted due to his general weakness and poor oral intake for several months. He was diagnosed as having Crohn disease 16 years ago and total colectomy was performed 10 years ago. On the 3rd day after admission, gross hematuria and sudden hemoptysis combined with diffuse infiltration were noted on chest X-ray. His symptoms and the diffusely increased lung opacities improved with administering high-dose steroid therapy. Later, anti-GBM antibody was found to be positive on the laboratory findings. We report here on a rare case of Goodpsture syndrome combined with prolonged Crohn disease along with a review of literature. (Tuberc Respir Dis 2006; 61: 384-388)
