OCULAR complications occur in 10 to 20 per cent. of patients with periarteritis nodosa (Gaynon and Asbury, 1943; Wise, 1952), but so far very few cases of either corneal ulceration, corneo-scleritis, or scleritis have been documented, which have been associated with either periarteritis nodosa or the Wegener variety of non-healing granuloma of the nose (Harbert and McPherson, 1947; Ingalls, 195...
In 1931 Klinger described a case of polyarteritis nodosa with an unusual localization of. the lesions in the nasal septum, lungs, spleen, and kidneys. Wegener (1937, 1939) reported three more similar cases as a new disease, stressing its granulomatous aspect. Since that time, examples of this condition have appeared in the literature under a confusing variety of different names, but recent auth...
Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis (EAF) is a rare submucosal fibrosis without a well-developed differential diagnosis. Three cases of sinonasal tract EAF were identified in 2 women and 1 man, aged 49, 64, and 28 years, respectively. The patients experienced a nasal cavity mass, maxillary pain, or nasal obstructive symptoms of long duration. The process involved the nasal septum (n = 2), nasal ...
BACKGROUND Saddle nose deformity secondary to Wegener granulomatosis (WG) presents a significant challenge for the reconstructive surgeon. Various grafting options have been proposed, but achieving good outcomes can be difficult. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 10 patients with WG who underwent reconstruction of saddle nose deformities by the senior author (A.G.) between 2005...
Palatal perforation can be defined as a communication between the nasal cavities and the oral cavity. There are various potential causes of palatal perforation. Failure of the palatal shelves to close during the sixth week of prenatal period results in cleft palate. Maternal alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking, folic acid deficiency, teratogenic drugs, certain viruses, corticosteroid use ...
A 27-year-old man presented with decreased vision bilaterally. Ophthalmologic examination revealed panuveitis with bilateral serous retinal detachments (figure 1) characteristic of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome. Analysis of CSF revealed mild pleocytosis. No oligoclonal bands were detected. On MRI, there was bilateral abnormal thickening of the choroid with retinal detachment (figure 2, A ...
OBJECTIVES Orbital manifestation of Wegener's granulomatosis is diverse and diagnosis is often difficult. This study aims to improve the diagnostic strategy in orbital Wegener. METHODS A review of the diagnostic process in patients in whom a diagnosis of orbital WG was considered. RESULTS Thirty-three patients were analysed, consisting of 15 patients with orbital WG, 11 with idiopathic orbi...
The term vasculitis encompasses a number of distinct clinicopathologic disease entities, each of which is characterized pathologically by cellular inflammation and destruction of the blood vessel wall, and clinically by the types and locations of the affected vessels. While multiple classification schemes have been proposed to categorize and simplify the approach to these diseases, ultimately t...
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) tests are used to diagnose and monitor inflammatory activity in Wegener granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis and its renal-limited variant (pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis), and Churg-Strauss syndrome. The International Consensus Statement on testing and reporting of ANCA states that ANCA are demonstrated most readily in these conditions...
Destructive midline granulomatous disease characterized by necrotizing granulomas of the head and neck is most commonly caused by Wegener granulomatosis, natural killer/T-cell lymphomas, cocaine abuse, or infections. An adolescent patient with myasthenia gravis treated with thymectomy subsequently developed extensive granulomatous destruction of midface structures, palate, nasal septum, airways...
