“…The polymorphonuclear leukocytes may show dissolution of their outlines (leukocytoclasis), resulting in the formation of ''nuclear dust''. The propensity of the eosinophils to be scattered throughout the infiltrate, and most distinctively to be intimately admixed within the formed granulomas and among the scattered epithelioid histiocytes, are findings not encountered in idiopathic orbital inflammations [28][29][30]. In our 13 cases of limited ophthalmic WG, ischemia was manifested as collagen necrosis in four of the five cases of scleritis and in all of the orbital cases.…”
The described histologic characteristics are highly suggestive of WG. These findings along with clinical or laboratory findings, allow the diagnosis of very limited ophthalmic WG in the absence of systemic involvement.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
