Goodpasture syndrome (GPS), also known as anti–glomerular basement membrane disease, is a rare autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack the basement membrane in lungs and kidneys, leading to bleeding from the lungs, glomerulonephritis, [1] and kidney failure. [2]

Pulmonary-renal syndrome (PRS) is a rare medical syndrome in which respiratory failure involving bleeding in the lungs and kidney failure (glomerulonephritis) occur. [1] PRS is associated with a high rate of morbidity and death. [1] The term was first used by Goodpasture in 1919 to describe the association of respiratory and kidney failure. [1]

Goodpasture syndrome - This is a rare autoimmune disease where autoantibodies are produced that target the glomerular basement membrane in both the lungs and the kidneys. The damage to the basement membrane causes bleeding, and the disease often presents in patients as hematuria and haemoptysis (coughing up blood).
People with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis may present with a nephritic syndrome. In management, steroid therapy is sometimes used, although the prognosis remains poor. [9] Three main subtypes are recognised: [4]: 557–558 Type 1 is Goodpasture syndrome, an autoimmune disease also affecting the lung.
The linear and granular patterns are examples of positive immunofluorescence that are associated as follows: Goodpasture syndrome (linear pattern), post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (granular), and diffuse proliferative nephritis (granular). [1]
