Overview
Obtaining a complete history is an important aspect in making a clinical diagnosis of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis. As it can help differentiate between the ANCA associated vasculitis and other possible causes that may mimic the disease. There are many similarities that are present between ANCA associated vacuities and Granulomatosis with polyangiitis. A history and clinical symptoms can help assess the disease.
History and Symptoms
Obtaining a complete history is an important aspect in making a clinical diagnosis of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis. As it can help differentiate between the ANCA associated vasculitis and other possible causes that may mimic the disease.
The initial symptomsthat are present in patients with Granulomatosis with polyangiitis are non-specific in nature. The following are history and symptoms of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis:[1][2][3][4]
Constitutional Symptoms
Ear, nose and throat involvement:
- Sinusitis
- Nasal crusting
- Otitis media
- Otorrhea
- Epistaxis
- Ulcers of the oral cavity or nasal
- Conductive and or sensorineural hearing loss
- Saddle nose deformity
- Masses present in the upper airway
- Cranial nerve entrapment
Pulmonary involvement:
- Hoarseness
- Cough
- Dyspnea
- Stridor
- Hemoptysis
- Pulmonary fibrosis
- Pulmonary arterial hypertension
- Parenchymal lung nodules
Renal involvement:
Cutaneous involvement:
- leukocytoclastic angiitis
- livedo reticularis
Ophthalmic involvement:
- conjunctivitis
- ulceration of the cornea
- episcleritis
Nervous system involvement:
- mononeuritis multiplex
- sensory neuropathy
- sensorineural hearing loss
- pachymeningitis
A diagnosis of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis can be made when three out of the six criteria are established. They are:[5]
- a histopathology that shows granuloma
- the upper respiratory tract is involved
- there is a stenosis that is present in larynx, trachea, and the bronchioles
- the pulmonary system is involved
- the presence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies
- the presence of glomerulonephritis
