ABSTRACT
Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a disease of small and medium sized muscular arteries, typically involving the skin, kidney, peripheral nerves, muscle and gut. Although its etiology has not been known clearly yet, an immune complex is believed to initiate a vasculitis. Infections, such as hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, and streptococcal infection, may be related with the development of PAN. We experienced a case of PAN preceded by Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus-associated otitis media in a 50-year-old woman. This is the first case reported in Korea.
