La coexistencia de esclerosis sistémica (ES) y vasculitis se ha comunicado en pocas ocasiones. Presentamos a un paciente de 65 años, con ES limitada diagnosticada 6 años antes, que desarrolló una glomerulonefritis necrosante focal con proliferación extracapilar asociada a anticuerpos anticitoplasma de neutrófilo con patrón perinuclear (p-ANCA) de especificidad antimieloperoxidasa (anti-MPO) en ausencia de exposición a la D-penicilamina.

The coexistence of systemic sclerosis (SSc) and vasculitis has been infrequently reported. We present a 65-year-old man who, 6 years previously, had been diagnosed with limited SSc, and who developed a focal segmental necrotizing crescent glomerulonephritis associated with perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies with antimyeloperoxidase specificity in the absence of Dpenicillamine exposure.
Key words:
Systemic sclerosis
Microscopic polyangiitis
P-ANCAs
