Gastrointestinal Involvement in Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: Case Report and Review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) commonly affects upper/lower respiratory tract and kidneys. It causes necrotizing vasculitis of small and medium-sized blood vessels. Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement is an uncommon manifestation of GPA, and presentation with predominant GI manifestation is noteworthy. We report a case of 50-year-old male with melena due to GI vasculitis along with other systemic involvement. The patient was treated with pulse methylprednisolone, cyclophosphamide, and plasmapheresis. To manage the refractory GI bleed, the patient underwent surgical resection, and the histology of the surgical specimen confirmed necrotizing vasculitis.

ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV) can cause various injuries along the gastrointestinal tract, but esophageal involvement is rare. Within the spectrum of lesions that may occur an esophageal hematoma is not a common mention in the literature. We present the case of a 67-year-old woman diagnosed with AAV and hematemesis. We consider the esophageal hematoma to be an atypical manifestation of a rare disease. The actual prevalence of this type of atypical manifestations is unknown, either due to its infrequent nature or the low reporting rate, so we believe that the publication of this type of manifestations is useful.
