Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) can cause renal failure, requiring long-term renal replacement therapy. Renal transplantation in patients with WG is successful, but the risk for recurrence of the disease necessitates continued vigilance. We report a patient that originally presented with acute renal failure secondary to a pauci-immune focal necrotizing crescentic glomerulonephritis. Subsequent nasal involvement and serologic tests for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies suggested a diagnosis of WG.
