Exclusively ocular and cardiac manifestation of granulomatosis with polyangiitis – a case report
2019
Background
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is an antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis that affects small to medium size vessels. While the classical form with renal and respiratory tract involvement is mainly seen, a limited form (i.e., with no renal disease) may also occur. We present an unusual case of GPA manifesting merely as a bilateral ocular involvement and complete heart block.
