[Churg-Strauss syndrome].

The Churg-Strauss syndrome, or allergic angiitis and granulomatosis of the lungs, is one of the systemic vasculitides with predominantly involvement and an unclear genesis. The clinical picture is characterized by a combination of intrinsic bronchial asthma, eosinophila with elevated IgE, and systemic vasculitis of the small blood vessels. Apart from the lungs, other organ systems may also be involved. We report, here, on a case, observed for a period of eight months, that showed complete remission under treatment with corticosteroids.
