Overview

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiits must be differentiated from other diseases that can cause purpura, alveolar hemorrhage, fever, arthralgia, myalgia, necrotizing extra-capillary glomerulonephritis, such as Granulomatosis with polyangiitis and Microscopic polyangiitis.[1]

Differentiating Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis from other Diseases

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause purpura, alveolar hemorrhage, necrotizing extra-capillary glomerulonephritis, such as Granulomatosis with polyangiitis and Microscopic polyangiitis.[1]

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis serological findings
Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis Granulomatosis with polyangiitis Microscopic polyangiitis
Cytoplasmic ANCA (cANCA) 90% positive
Perinuclear ANCA (pANCA) 30 to 40% positive 60 to 80% positive
Myeloperoxidase antigen
Proteinase 3 antigen

Differentiating Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis from other Diseases

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause pulmonary eosinophilia and perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) such as:[2]

Pulmonary eosinophilia

  • Parasitic infections
  • Drugs
  • Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis

Perinuclear ANCA

  • Cystic Fibrosis
  • Bronchogenic carcinoma
  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Sclerosing cholangitis
  • Myeloproliferative disorders
  • Systemic lupus erythematosis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
