[Atypical form of Goodpasture's disease].

Goodpasture's disease and anti-glomerular basement membrane nephritis (anti-GBM nephritis) are rare autoimmune small vessel vasculitis predominantly affecting young men. Goodpasture's disease plays an important part in differential diagnosis of pulmonary - renal syndrome. The evidence of circulating autoantibodies, a typical histological appearance of the kidney biopsy with finding of the crescent glomerulonephritis and clinical presentation of nephritic syndrome play an important role in diagnosis.
