Pulmonary pathology in microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is diagnosed in 25–70% of cases and is primarily represented by necrotizing hemorrhagic alveolitis, which can be the initial manifestation of an autoimmune disease and is a life-threatening pathology requiring the clinician to immediately diagnose and promptly assign adequate pathogenetic therapy. A case of fatal hemorrhagic pneumonitis with pulmonary hemorrhage and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis due to MPA is presented. According to the ineffectiveness of the artificial lung ventilation, the patient had required the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, that had improved the respiratory function of the lungs until the development of clinical effectiveness of pathogenetic therapy of MPA, including high-volume plasma exchange, high doses of corticosteroids, immunoglobulins and cytostatics.
Keywords: microscopic polyangiitis, hemorrhagic alveolitis, acute respiratory failure, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
