We know that about 10% of the cases in the pathologic continuum of PICG are ANCA negative despite similar clinical features and renal biopsy findings as compared to ANCA-positive cases [1].
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) are specific for proteins in the cytoplasm of neutrophils and monocytes. The major target antigens in patients with vasculitis and glomerulonephritis are myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase 3 (PR3).
In most patients, pauci-immune CGN is a component of a systemic small vessel vasculitis such as granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). Approximately 90% of patients with PICG have circulating ANCA antibodies, leading to the nomenclatureANCA-associated vasculitis(AAV).

ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV) is an umbrella term for a group of multi-system autoimmune small vessel vasculitides that can present at any age and affect 20-25 people per million per year in Europe. 1 A typical GP practice with 8000 patients can expect to see one new case approximately every five years.

Pauci-immune (pauci- Latin: few, little) vasculitis is a form of vasculitis that is associated with minimal evidence of hypersensitivity upon immunofluorescent staining for IgG. Often, this is discovered in the setting of the kidney.

Systemic vasculitis is a general term referring to the inflammation of arteries and veins that progresses to necrosis, leading to a narrowing of the vessels. Although the specific cause of many of these disorders is not known, infectious organisms, drugs, tumors, and allergic reactions are some of the defined triggers.
Vasculitis can be a diagnosis in itself but more often it coexists with lupus or another autoimmune disease and is then considered to be a component of that illness. Blood vessel inflammation is common to all the rheumatic autoimmune illnesses.
“Angiitis” and “Arteritis” are both synonyms for vasculitis, literally meaning “inflammation within blood vessels” or “inflammation in arteries.” Because there are so many types of vasculitis, the group is sometimes referred to in the plural: vasculitides (pronounced “vas que lit' i deez”).
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly known as Wegener granulomatosis, is a rare multisystem autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. GPA is one of the antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitic disorders.
M31. 3 - Wegener's granulomatosis | ICD-10-CM.
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis is an uncommon disorder that causes inflammation of the blood vessels in your nose, sinuses, throat, lungs and kidneys. Formerly called Wegener's granulomatosis, this condition is one of a group of blood vessel disorders called vasculitis. It slows blood flow to some of your organs.
Kidney disease, also known as nephropathy or renal disease, is damage to or disease of a kidney. Nephritis is inflammatory kidney disease. Nephrosis is noninflammatory nephropathy. Kidney disease usually causes kidney failure (renal failure) to more or less degree, with the amount depending on the type of disease.
