Churg-Strauss syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by asthma, eosinophilia, and vasculitis. The patient presented with prolonged fever, cough with blood-stained sputum, weight loss, pain in the abdomen, and a subsequent onset of hoarseness of voice. A history of asthma, left-side vocal cord paralysis, eosinophilia, nodular opacities on radiography, and eosinophilic duodenitis on biopsy led to a diagnosis of Churg-Strauss syndrome. The patient's condition improved on treatment with steroids. This is an interesting case and presents an opportunity to learn about Churg-Strauss syndrome.
变应性肉芽肿性血管炎是一种罕见的多系统疾病,其特征为哮喘、嗜酸性粒细胞增多和血管炎。该患者表现为长期发热、咳血痰、体重减轻、腹痛,随后出现声音嘶哑。哮喘病史、左侧声带麻痹、嗜酸性粒细胞增多、影像学检查显示结节状阴影以及活检发现嗜酸性粒细胞性十二指肠炎,这些表现导致了变应性肉芽肿性血管炎的诊断。患者经类固醇治疗后病情好转。这是一个有趣的病例,为了解变应性肉芽肿性血管炎提供了机会。
