    Journal: Br J Clin Pract; 1992; 46(4):268-9. PubMed ID: 1290739.
    Abstract:
    Wegener's granulomatosis is a form of systemic vasculitis. Untreated, it has a 90% two year mortality, but complete remission can be obtained in 93% of patients following treatment with cyclophosphamide (usually in combination with steroids). There is early and major involvement of the respiratory tract. Renal involvement adversely affects prognosis.
