Overview
Pathogenesis
The pathogenesis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is not fully understood. Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis [4] is a medium and small vessel autoimmune vasculitis, leading to necrosis. It involves mainly the blood vessels of the lungs (it begins as a severe type of asthma), gastrointestinal system, and peripheral nerves, but also affects the heart, skin, and kidneys.
Genetics
- HLA-DRB1*7, and HLA-DRB4 are associated with the development of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. HLA-DRB4 is correlated with increasing risk of development of vascular manifestations of the churg-strauss syndrome.[1][2]
- Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the Interleukin-10 gene (IL10.2 haplotype) have been associated in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangitis.[3]
Associated Conditions
The following conditions are associated with Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis:[4][5][6][7]
- Well's syndrome
- AA amyloidosis
- Asthma
- Nasal polyposis and sinusitis
- Skin
- Cardiovascular:
- Neurologic:
- Renal:
- GI Disease:
Gross Pathology
On gross pathology, the following changes are seen in patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis include:[8]
- Nodular swellings that appears along the small arteries of various organs
- Heart, liver, kidney, GI tract, and spleen.
- Infarcts, hemorrhage and scarring of affected organs
- Pulmonary artery occlusion and thrombus formation.
- Patchy consolidations of the lung.
- Ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial scariing.
Microscopic Pathology
On microscopic examination, following findings can be seen in eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, include:[9][10]
- Infiltration of eosinophils with necrosis
- Necrotizing vasculitis involving small and medium-sized arteries and venules.
- Necrotizing granulomas
- Interstitial and perivascular necrotizing granulomas
- Granulomas composed of an eosinophilic center and surrounded by macrophages, histocytes, and multi nucleated giant cells peripherally.
- Eosinophilic lymphadenopathy
