Abstract

Churg-Strauss  syndrome  is a  rare  autoimmune   disease  with  small-vessel  vasculitis. We report  a  case  of 60-year-old   man.  The presence  of hypereosinophilia, asthma,  sinusitis and extravascular eosinophil accumulation  led to the diagnosis of Churg-Strauss syndrome. The patient  was effectively treated with methylprednisolone, cyclophosphamide.
