ENT manifestations of Wegeners granulomatosis
Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2013, Vol 67, Issue 5
Abstract
Wegeners granulomatosis is a necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis with multisystemic involvement. We present two cases of Wegener's presenting with otological manifestations as the first symptom. These symptoms are subtle and diagnosis may be easily overlooked. Hence a high index of suspicion is required. Early diagnosis and treatment goes a long way in improving the outcomes and in preventing further complications.
