Abstract

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg – Strauss granulomatosis) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by eosinophilic, granulomatous inflammation in combination with necrotizing vasculitis, predominantly affecting small and medium-sized vessels and most often manifested by damage to the respiratory tract. The nonspecificity of symptoms of eosinophilic granulomatosis at the onset of the disease and the similarity of symptoms with other vasculitis, systemic, infectious and neoplastic diseases makes it difficult to make a diagnosis. The paper presents a clinical case demonstrating the difficulties of differential diagnosis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis with other systemic diseases.
