Overview
When suspecting a patient with microscopic polyangiitis(MPO) an ANCA test should be an idle choice.Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Microscopic polyangiitis include leukocytosis, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, proteinuria, hematuria, red cell casts, elevated blood urea nitrogen, elevated serum creatinine, and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
Laboratory Findings
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Microscopic polyangiitis include, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody, elevated blood urea nitrogen, elevated serum creatinine, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, proteinuria, hematuria, red cell casts, and leukocytosis.
Blood Work-up[1][2][3]
- Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody test.
- MPA is primarily associated with MPO-ANCA.[4]
- Complete blood count.
- Serum creatinine.
- Blood urea nitrogen.
- leukocytosis.
Urinalysis[5]
- Proteinuria
- Hematuria
- Red cell casts
Biopsy
Biopsy of the involved skin, lung, renal, and nerve can be made to help establish a diagnosis of Microscopic polyangiitis.[6][7]
- Skin biopsy is characterized by the presences of immunoglobulins and complement components.
- Renal biopsy is characterized as a crescent formation with focal necrosis.
- Lung biopsy is characterized by alveolar capillaritis.
- Nerve biopsy is characterized by vascular necrosis of small and medium-sized vessels.
