Abstract

COVID-19 can damage the endothelial cells of every organ in the body and lead to vasculopathy and vasculitis. It has been shown that various types of vasculitis could be a new manifestation of COVID-19. Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare systemic necrotizing vasculitis that affects small vessels. Here we report our experience with a 42-year-old man with a 3-weeks history of fever of unknown origin after two months from COVID-19 recovery presented with loss of appetite, loss of weight, and paresthesia in his lower extremities. After required evaluations including nerve biopsy, EGPA was diagnosed for him.
