Abstract

WG is an uncommon disease process with considerable risk of mortality if diagnosis and treatment are delayed. Skin, sinus, or oral mucosal lesions may be part of the initial presentation. This article provided the clinician with information concerning recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of WG. Early recognition and treatment are essential in limiting the potentially life-threatening aspects of the disease.
