Abstract

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA, Wegener's granulomatosis) is a rare autoimmune disease, characterized by vasculitis of small and medium-sized vessels, as well as the formation of granulomas and the most frequent involvement of the upper respiratory tract, lungs, kidneys and eyes in the pathological process. In the absence of treatment, the disease progresses rapidly and is fatal. The onset of the disease is possible at any age. Pharmacotherapy is aimed at suppressing the immunopathological reactions underlying the disease in order to achieve complete remission associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies of systemic vasculitis (ANCA-SV). The article deals with a difficult case for diagnosis of respiratory tract damage in GPA in a 60-year-old woman.
