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.
