| Abstract: | A distinctive case of Goodpasture's syndrome characterized by multiple recurrences occurring over 14 years was observed. Each recurrence followed cessation of prednisone and azathioprine therapy, and reinstitution of this therapy resulted in prompt remission. Initially, both glomerulonephritis and hemoptysis were prominent clinical features. In recent years, hemoptysis has been the predominant clinical problem. This and other cases suggest that Goodpasture's syndrome may comprise a wider disease spectrum than generally appreciated. |
