COVID-19 and granulomatosis with polyangiitis share many clinical and radiological features, making it challenging for clinicians to distinguish between the two. In this case report, we describe a patient who was diagnosed with COVID-19 in October 2020. One month later, she presented with persistent fatigue, shortness of breath and anaemia with worsening renal functions, found to have elevated antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies and antiproteinase 3 antibodies, and diagnosed with granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
