Abstract

We describe four patients with Churg-Strauss syndrome admitted to the hospital in 1988. Some clinical and histological features of particular relief are present in these cases. All patients had been treated with corticosteroids and they are now in remission. Our work suggests that Churg-Strauss syndrome is not a rare disease and that an early diagnosis and appropriate therapy may influence favourably at least long term survival.
