罕见的多血管炎重叠综合征病例

Abstract

This case follows a 38-year-old Caucasian male with no known medical history who presented to the emergency department for syncope. He also endorsed a two-month history of fevers, weight loss, oral ulcers, rashes, joint swelling and arthralgias. After extensive workup, he was given a working diagnosis of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). Conflicting diagnostic evidence made it increasingly difficult to distinguish between GPA and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. In conclusion, we believe the patient may be better diagnosed with polyangiitis overlapping syndrome.
