Abstract
Idiopathic systemic vasculitis is characterized by inflammation and necrosis of the vessel walls of unknown origin. Medications and infections have been proposed as potential triggers of these diseases. The case is presented on a patient diagnosed with granulomatosis with polyangiitis with antibodies to neutrophil cytoplasm, as well as anti-proteinase 3 and anti-myeloperoxidase, plus the unusual finding of renal granuloma.
