ANCA-Negative EGPA With Pulmonary, Cutaneous, and Neurological Manifestations in a 25-Year-Old Male: A Case Report.

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is a systemic vasculitis characterized by the presence of asthma, hyper-eosinophilia, and necrotizing vasculitis with extravascular eosinophilic granulomas. We report the case of a 25-year-old male who presented to the outpatient department complaining of joint aches and numbness in the hands and legs. Physical examination revealed erythematous blanchable macular rashes on palms and soles. Raynaud's phenomenon was also observed. Lab workup revealed elevated WBC count and peripheral blood eosinophilia. Antibody tests were positive only for anti-nuclear antibodies. A diagnosis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis including peripheral neuropathy, arthralgia, rash, and pulmonary manifestations was established. The patient was started on a therapeutic regimen of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, which halted the progression of the disease. Peripheral neuropathy and arthralgia also improved.
