Overview

A complete medical history and a comprehensive pulmonary, ENT, and renal examination must be performed to help identify and properly diagnose Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis form other diseases.

Physical Examination

A complete medical history and a comprehensive pulmonary, ENT, and renal examination must be performed to help identify and properly diagnose Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis form other diseases. A thorough physical examination can provide insight into possible causes and associated underlying conditions. The following findings may be present during a physical examination of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis:

  • Hypertension
  • Palpable purpura
  • Nodules
  • Nasal polys
  • Allergic rhinitis
  • Numbness, or tingling of the extremities
  • Peripheral neuropathy
