abstract={COVID-19 is primarily a pulmonary disease characterized by both pulmonary and extrapulmonary complications. While acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the most common pulmonary complication, acute kidney injury is the most common extrapulmonary complication of acute COVID-19. In addition, COVID-19 is associated with a cytokine storm capable of stimulating an autoimmune disorder. Here we present an unusual case of P-ANCA associated vasculitis and diffuse, pauci-immune rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis in a 24-year-old COVID-19 patient, resulting in an (AKI) requiring hemodialysis. The patient improved clinically after starting hydrocortisone and rituximab. She was, however, still dependent on hemodialysis at the time of hospital discharge.},
