SARS-CoV-2 infection is a pandemic that affects predominantly upper airways and lungs. It may lead to reactivation of known inflammatory rheumatic diseases and/or initiation of various granulomatous disorders. Necrotising sarcoid granulomatosis (NSG) is a rare condition that can be confused with malignancy, granulomatosis with polyangiitis, and sarcoidosis. Herein we reported the development of NSG following a SARS-CoV-2 infection which mimicked granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)感染是一种大流行病,主要影响上呼吸道和肺部。它可能导致已知的炎性风湿性疾病复发和/或引发各种肉芽肿性疾病。坏死性结节病样肉芽肿病(NSG)是一种罕见的病症,可能会与恶性肿瘤、肉芽肿性多血管炎和结节病相混淆。在此,我们报告了1例SARS-CoV-2感染后发生的NSG,其表现类似于肉芽肿性多血管炎。
