Pulmonary-renal syndrome is a medical condition that encompasses a range of clinical symptoms that can appear in various diseases. It is identified by the occurrence of both pulmonary hemorrhage and glomerulonephritis. While this syndrome is rare in children, it can pose a medical emergency if it does occur. Goodpasture's syndrome (GPS) is one of the infrequent causes of pulmonary-renal syndrome in childhood. This article presents a case study detailing the diagnosis of Goodpasture's Syndrome in a 5-year-old pediatric patient with a medical history of nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis at end-stage renal failure, and the presence of anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) antibodies. The patient was admitted to the emergency department due to hemoptysis, a hallmark symptom of this syndrome.
