摘要：

Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA), which was formerly named Wegener's Granulomatosis (WG) is a systemic disease characterized by necrotizing granulomatous inflammation and vasculitis that primarily involves upper and lower respiratory tract, as well as kidneys. Diagnosing GPA on the basis of transthoracic fine needle aspiration (TFNA) may be problematic, as it can be misdiagnosed as cancer. We describe a patient with a probable GPA which was originally diagnosed as malignancy, but who responded to lung cancer chemotherapy. (C) 2011 Sociedade Portuguesa de Pneunnologia.
