It’s very rare that these disease start from kidney and involve both kidney’s. We present a case of 50 years old female patient who developed unspecific symptoms in kidney’s and after two operation on both kidney’s the diagnosis was not sure in histopathology. The extension of diagnosis which include: CT scan, immunology (antinuclear antibodies c-ANCA and p-ANCA) showed that it could be granulomatosis with polyangiitis which symptoms started from kidney's.
