We report a case of CSS with cholecystitis and mononeuritis multiplex. A 50-year-old woman with a history of sinusitis and bronchial asthma of 8 years’ duration was referred with a complaint of left-hand deformity and difficulty in walking. The laboratory findings included remarkable eosinophilia, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and a marked eosinophilic infiltration in the gallbladder biopsy. Based on the clinical features and histopathological findings, she was diagnosed with CSS and subsequently treated with prednisolone and cyclophosphamide.}, keywords = {Churg-Strauss syndrome,Cholecystitis,Mononeuropathies}, url = {https://ijms.sums.ac.ir/article_40538.html}, eprint = {https://ijms.sums.ac.ir/article_40538_3f11b45a699a3bf962932a4028eb2c1a.pdf} }
