Abstract: Granulomatous vasculitis is a kind of necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis with the prominent feature of detectable anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in serum, which often involves the respiratory tract and kidneys, and the onset of symptoms in the digestive tract is rare, and we now report a rare case of granulomatous vasculitis in which the gastrointestinal tract was involved as the first symptom in order to improve the clinician's understanding of this disease.
