摘要

缺血性脑卒中可能是肉芽肿伴多血管炎（GPA）的一种罕见非典型表现。临床医生在评估患者缺血性中风的病因时，对这一实体的认识至关重要。我们报告了一例 48 岁女性急性缺血性脑卒中病例，病因与 GPA 有关。根据血清学标记和核磁共振脑成像结果，她被确诊为该病。正确的疾病诊断至关重要，因为免疫抑制治疗可以改善预后。

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis presenting as acute ischemic stroke- A case of an unusual presentation

Ischemic stroke can be a rare atypical presentation of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). Awareness of this entity is vital when a clinician evaluates a patient for the aetiology of the ischemic stroke. We report a case of a 48-year-old female who presented with acute ischemic stroke and the etiology was found to be related to GPA. She was diagnosed according to the serological markers and MRI brain findings. Correct disease diagnosis is essential, as immunosuppressive therapy can improve the prognosis.
