  • Title: [A case of Churg-Strauss granulomatous angiitis: an autonomous clinical entity or a variant of panarteritis nodosa?].
    Author: Zanardi F, Pirani R.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1978 Oct 13; 69(48):3311-8. PubMed ID: 31578.
    Abstract:
    A fatal case of Churg and Strauss granulomatous angiitis in a 21-yr-old woman is described. Its unusual features included marked personal and familial dysreaction, sudden onset, bronchopulmonitis with distinct eosinophilia and antibiotic- and cortisone-resistant pericarditis, and a terminal picture of generalised septico-pyaemia. The histological findings included necrotising systemic vasculitis with granulomas, some of them extravascular, in various organs. Differential diagnosis and the relation between this form and panarteritis nodosa are discussed.
