Overview

The majority of patients with [disease name] are asymptomatic.

OR

The hallmark of [disease name] is [finding]. A positive history of [finding 1] and [finding 2] is suggestive of [disease name]. The most common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Common symptoms of [disease] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Less common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].

History and Symptoms

Obtaining a complete history is an important aspect in making a diagnosis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. As it can help differentiate between the ANCA associated vasculitis and other possible causes that may mimic the disease.
Symptoms of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis typically develops through three phases, include prodromal phase, eosinophilic phase, and vasculitis phase. Although these phases cannot be clinically distinguishable.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]
- Prodromal phase: Most common manifestations include allergic rhinitis and asthma.
- Eosinophilic phase: This phase is characterized by peripheral eosinophilia and infiltration of eosinophils in multiple organs. Most commonly involved organs are lung and GI tract.
- Vasculitic phase: This phase is characterized by small and medium-sized vasculitis and inflammatory granuloma formation. Granulomas can be either vascular or extravascular. Commonly involved organs include lungs, kidneys, skin, heart, and peripheral nerves.
