| == Diagnosis ==
| |
| | |
| Because of the vagueness of early symptoms and rapid progression of the disease, diagnosis is often not reached until very late in the course of the disease. Kidney [[biopsy]] is often the fastest way to secure the diagnosis and gain information about the extent of the disease and likely effect of treatment. Tests for anti-GBM [[antibody|antibodies]] may also be useful, combined with tests for antibodies to neutrophil cytoplasmic antigens, which are also directed against the patient’s own proteins.
| |
| | |
| == Treatment ==
| |
| | |
| Like many autoimmune diseases, Goodpasture’s syndrome responds well to treatment with [[corticosteroid]]s and [[immunosuppressant]]s. These drugs dampen the body's normal immune response. A serious side effect of this is that the patient may become more susceptible to infections. The concentration of anti-GBM antibodies in the blood may be reduced by [[apheresis]] to remove blood plasma and its replacement with an isotonic salt and protein solution. This course of treatment usually lasts between three and six months.
| |
| | |
| [[Antibiotic]] treatment of lung infection and stopping smoking may also help to reduce lung haemorrhaging.
| |
| | |
| However, none of these can reverse permanent kidney damage and so for patients who have suffered this, renal [[organ transplant|transplant]] once the disease has subsided may be the only option.
