A 35-year-old Malay man underwent treatment for uveitis of the right eye in 1992 but developed marked visual impairment in the affected eye after he failed to attend follow-up. Two years later, he complained of difficulty swallowing and was found to have left sided X and XI cranial nerve palsies. Chest radiograph showed a cavitating lesion in the lower zone of the right lung field. Inflammation and perforation of the nasal septum was found on examination of his upper respiratory tract. Punch biopsies taken from that area showed chronic inflammatory change and necrotizing vasculities. The patient was diagnosed as having Wegener's granulomatosis and made a very good recovery with immunosuppressive therapy.
