- Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), previously known as Wegener's granulomatosis, is a necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis of the small and medium vessels involving the upper respiratory tract, lungs, and kidneys. In this case report, we will describe the case of a 60-year-old man who presented to our observation with recurrent episodes of hemoptoe, fever, and mucopurulent sputum. The diagnosis was made by radiological and laboratory tests.
