Article Synopsis
- A woman diagnosed with Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) experienced bilateral vision problems due to a central nervous system (CNS) lesion.
- The diagnosis was confirmed through MR imaging and a brain biopsy, revealing a necrotizing granulomatous lesion.
- Following high-dose oral corticosteroid treatment, both her symptoms and lab results improved significantly, leading to the complete regression of the CNS lesion, indicating that corticosteroids may be effective in treating WG with CNS involvement.
