WEGENER'S DISEASE: CLINICAL CASE DESCRIPTION

Wegener's disease is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, characterized by systemic granulomatous necrotizing vasculitis with the most common involvement of the upper and lower respiratory tract, kidneys, organs of vision and hearing and central nervous system. The onset of the disease, as a rule, manifests itself with nonspecific clinical symptoms, which complicates its diagnosis and delays specific treatment.
