Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis include, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, hypereosinophilia, and elevated immunoglobulin E titers (IgE).
Laboratory Findings
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis include, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, hypereosinophilia, and elevated immunoglobulin E titers (IgE). Routine laboratory tests that are used to identify Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis are:.[1]
Blood Work-up
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Uremia
- Serum creatinine
- Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
- Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody test
- Eosinophilia
- Immunoglobulin
- Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)
- C-reactive protein (CRP)
- Serum troponin[2]
- Rheumatoid factor
Urinalysis
- Proteinuria
- Microscopic hematuria
- Albuminuria
- Red blood cell casts
Biopsy
The gold standard in establishing a diagnosis for Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is a lung biopsy.[3]
