Abstract:Rationale:
Immune-mediated vasculitis with 2 or more autoantibodies, for example, anti-proteinase-3, combined with anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO) or anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibodies, is extremely unusual. Furthermore, the coexistence of autoimmune vasculitis and hematological malignancies is uncommon. Herein, we describe a case of double-seropositive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis with multiple myeloma.
