Abstract

Male patient with a diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis associated to anti-proteinase 3 antibodies that improved initially to treatment with high dose glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide but who relapsed, with a poor response to glucocorticoid treatment, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and azathioprine. The patient received treatment with rituximab in 4 doses with clinical and radiographic improvement.

Resumen

Se presenta el caso de un paciente con granulomatosis de Wegener asociada a anticuerpos antiproteinasa 3 que tuvo mejoría inicial con dosis altas de glucocorticoides y ciclofosfamida, pero que posteriormente a una recaída no respondió a los mismos medicamentos, ni a metotrexate ni a zatioprina. Por tal motivo, recibió tratamiento con rituximab en 4 dosis, además de glucocorticoides, obteniendo mejoría del cuadro tanto clínica como radiográficamente.
