Tubular Lesions Predict Renal Outcome in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Glomerulonephritis after Rituximab Therapy

Histopathological features in renal biopsies of patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis have predictive value for renal outcome in patients who receive standard treatment with cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids; however, whether the same holds true for rituximab-treated patients is unknown. We describe associations between renal histopathology and outcomes among patients treated with a rituximab-based regimen …
