The prognosis is best in rapidly progressive (crescentic) glomerulonephritis associated with:

Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis may occur in association with the five diseases mentioned and also with periaeritis (polyaeritis) nodosa, Wegener's granulomatosis, and essential cryoglobulinemia. Some cases arise without a known antecedent disease (idiopathic). Although the prognosis is poor in all types of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, post streptococcal disease has a better prognosis than the other types, and up to 50% of patients may recover sufficient renal function to avoid chronic dialysis or transplantation.
