ABSTRACT
We report a rare case of a 37-year-old man with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) with gastrointestinal system (GIS) involvement who needed 526 units of blood and blood product transfusions and was followed up in the intensive care unit (ICU). GIS involvement due to GPA is a rare condition that increases morbidity and mortality of patients. Patients may require ultramassive blood product transfusions. Thus, patients with GPA can be admitted to ICUs because of massive hemorrhage due to multisystem involvement, and survival is achievable with meticulous care through a multidisciplinary approach.
