i though it was type 2

 

[Brorthopedic]

It's type II, caused by autoantibodies to the presynaptic calcium channels

 

[Phloston]

Definitely type II.

There are cases of mixed type II/IV (e.g., Guillain-barre), and scenarios that can yield both II and III (e.g., RF / PSGN in Strep infection).

But LE syndrome in particular is an isolated II I would say.

so PSGN is both?

 

[Phloston]

so PSGN is both?

No. Strep infection can cause RF (II) and/or PSGN (III).
