Final answer:
The typical fluorescence pattern on kidney biopsy for Goodpasture syndrome is linear, caused by the linear deposition of immunoglobulins along the basement membranes. The correct option is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
The type of fluorescence pattern on kidney biopsy that is typically associated with Goodpasture syndrome is C. Linear fluorescence.
Goodpasture syndrome, also known as anti-glomerular basement membrane disease, is characterized by the presence of circulating anti-GBM antibodies that attack the glomerular basement membrane in the kidneys and often the alveolar basement membrane in the lungs.
This autoimmune response leads to a linear deposition of immunoglobulins, particularly IgG, along the basement membranes, which can be detected using direct immunofluorescence microscopy on a kidney biopsy specimen.
