Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Presenting as Prostatitis: An Uncommon Scenario

Abstract

Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA) formerly known as Wegeners Granulomatosis is an ANCA associated small vessel vasculitis that commonly involves the pulmonary and renal system. The lower urogenital tract is rarely affected. We present a patient who developed prostatitis initially and later manifested itself with multi-systemic involvement from GPA.
