Abstract

Wegener's granulomatosis is an autoimmune, idiopathic disease, characterized by granulomatous vasculitis which involves small arteries and veins in any organ of the body. The disease has limited and systemic forms. It may manifest with symptoms of ear and nose. Otolaryngologists should have a great care and awareness since the diagnostic delay is most often seen in patients presenting with head and neck symptoms. We herein present a case of Wegener's granulomatosis with prominent involvement of ear and nose in the light of related articles.

Özet

Wegener granülomatozisi, vücudun herhangi bir organını etkileyebilen, küçük arter ve venleri tutan, granülomatöz vaskülit ile karakterize, otoimmün, idiyopatik bir hastalıktır. Sınırlı ve sistemik formları vardır. Kulak ve burun semptomları ile kendini gösterebilir. Tanıda en fazla gecikme baş ve boyun bölgesi ile ilgili semptomlarla başvuran hastalarda olduğu için, kulak burun boğaz hekimlerinin bu konuda büyük bir dikkate ve farkındalığa ihtiyaçları vardır. Yazımızda kulak ve burun tutulumu ön planda olan sınırlı bir Wegener granülomatozis olgusunu ilgili literatürler ışığında sunduk.
