Hello! My name is Maíra, I'm from Brazil and I was diagnosed with Wegener's in 2010 (nose and lungs).
I'd like to know if some of you or the Mayo Clinic doctors have ever seen GPA causing corneal endothelium inflammation. I've an lesion in my right eye corneal endothelium and the doctors here have never seen GPA causing this, but they say it can happen. C ANCA 1/160. Tks!

Hi Maira, I'm glad that you posted your question again in this discussion and hope some members are able to provide information for you. I found another article that has a lot of good information on eye corneal endothelium that may provide some information that helps.
