Churg Strauss syndrome, also known as allergic granulomatosis, is an autoimmune disorder characterised by accumulated antibodies, inflammation of blood vessels, and abnormal clustering of white blood cells.
Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) was also labeled allergic granulomatosis and angiitis because of the presence, predominantly in extranodal locations, of granulomatous inflammation along with eosinophilic vasculitis.
