【 摘 要 】

Abstract Granulomatosis with polyangiitis with nasal septal perforation can be confused with infectious diseases such as mucosal leishmaniasis, so these cases warrant an in‐depth study in order to provide the correct treatment. Among the main characteristics to consider to define a Wegener's granulomatosis as opposed to an infectious disease are vasculitis, lymphadenopathy, and sinusopathy.
