    (Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2019) Tagle V., Rodrigo; Arancibia Varela, Trinidad Catalina; Fischman Han, Alexandra; Vázquez Peña, Sebastián Enrique; Chahuán Abde, Javier Nicolás; Méndez Olivieri, Gonzalo Patricio; Huidobro Espinosa, Juan Pablo
    Goodpasture Syndrome is described as a single episode disease entity. It is diagnosed with the demonstration of antiglomerular basement (anti-GBM) antibodies in plasma or renal tissue. Although the recurrence of anti-GBM disease is rare, it has been reported in up to 3% of cases. Recurrence with negative anti-GBM antibodies in plasma is even less frequent We report a 63 years old male in whom anti-GBM disease recurred without detectable anti-GBM antibodies in plasma, despite having positive antibodies at the onset.
