Clinical case of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis: diagnostic difficulties and clinical picture

https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2020.72.30

Abstract

The article presents a clinical case of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss syndrome), which was diagnosed for the first time in a 27-year-old man with bronchial asthma, eosinophilia, and gastrointestinal tract involvement. A retrospective analysis of the disease demonstrates the difficulties in diagnosing this disease. In this clinical case, the diagnosis was made 1.5-2 years after the onset of the first manifestations of the disease, in the second period of the development of the disease, based on the symptoms of the disease that were identified in the patient: bronchial asthma, rhinosinusopathy, pulmonary infiltrates, hypereosinophilia, despite the absence of biological markers of vasculitis. This syndrome is infrequently in clinical practice; however, doctors of various specialties should be aware of identifying this syndrome in their patients.
