Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a granulomatous disorder linked with systemic necrotizing vasculitis with varied initial manifestations. We describe a case of a 49-year-old Malay female patient who gradually developed more symptoms of GPA over the past 14 years. This case emphasizes early detection and optimal treatment to minimize any further complications of GPA.
