ABSTRACT
Asthmatic granulomatosis (AG) is a variant of severe asthma, first described in 2012, that consists of small airway changes compatible with asthma as well as interstitial nonnecrotizing granulomas. Treatment of AG requires immunosuppression as opposed to the traditional asthma therapy of inhaled steroids. We describe a 5-year course of a patient with AG that has shown no improvement with immunosuppression or other standards of therapy.
