The spectrum of neurologic involvement in Wegener's granulomatosis

Department of Neurology (Dr. Nishino) and the Division of Medical Pathology (Dr. Parisi), Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation, Rochester, MN; and the Department of Neurology (Dr. Rubino), Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, Jacksonville, FL.

Four patients with Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) presented with unique neurologic manifestations. On initial presentation, these patients had multiple mononeuropathy, multiple cranial neuropathy, myelopathy, and cerebritis. This series demonstrates that WG can present with a spectrum of neurologic manifestations.
