The cases of three patients with Wegener's granulomatosis presenting as exophthalmos and cranial neuropathy are reported. In the first patient's symptoms were secondary to the presence of a retro-orbital mass. In the second and third patients there was dissemination of neighboring granulomatous processes. Paranasal sinuses were involved in two patients, but clinical manifestations were evident in only one. Full remission was achieved in all three. Two patients had been received immunosuppressant therapy for inflammatory processes evaluated a posteriori in the context of Wegener's granulomatosis. The immunosuppressant treatment seems to have conditioned this unusual clinical presentation.
