摘要
Otitis media (OM) is well known as a common feature of proteinase 3 antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (PR3-ANCA)-related Wegener granulomatosis, but is a very rare condition in myeloperoxidase ANCA (MPO-ANCA)-related vasculitis. In addition, there have been a few reports showing an association of MPO-ANCA-positive OM with cranial polyneuropathy. In this report, we describe 2 patients with bilateral facial nerve palsy due to MPO-ANCA-related OM. One patient also had bilateral trigeminal neuropathy, pachymeningitis and MPO-ANCA-related glomerulonephritis, whereas the other showed isolated bilateral facial nerve palsy with OM. In both the patients, treatment with prednisolone and immune-suppressant drugs resulted in an improvement of OM and cranial polyneuropathy. Physicians should be aware that MPO-ANCA-positive OM can cause bilateral facial nerve palsy.
