Abstract:
Wegener's disease is characterized by necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis. The localized form involves the upper and lower respiratory tract, in the generalized form, the kidneys are also involved. In this paper, three cases of Wegener granulomatosis with otorhinolaryngological symptoms are reported. Frequently the presentation of this disease occurs in the ears, nose and throat, we think that the knowledge of this granulomatosis by the otorhinolaryngologist is necessary.
