TI  - Intractable otitis media as a diagnostic clue to antineutrophil cytoplasmic 
      antibody-associated vasculitis.

AB  - Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) presents a 
      variety of manifestations. Two patients with a history of intractable otitis 
      media were diagnosed as having AAV. One was an 87-year-old woman who presented 
      with cough, anorexia, and fever with a one-year and four-month history of otitis 
      media, and the other was a 65-year-old woman with arthritis that appeared after 
      the diagnosis of otitis media. The history of otitis media was a diagnostic clue 
      to AAV in both patients. Diagnosis at the early localized stage is crucial to 
      prevent irreversible status of AAV. Primary care physicians should be aware of 
      the otological manifestation of AAV.
