Sign in to saveAlso known as Angiitis, Vasculitis Syndrome
Vasculitis is a group of disorders that destroy blood vessels by inflammation. Both arteries and veins are affected. Lymphangitis (inflammation of lymphatic vessels) is sometimes considered a type of vasculitis. Vasculitis is primarily caused by leukocyte migration and resultant damage. Although both occur in vasculitides, inflammation of veins (phlebitis) or arteries (arteritis) on their own are separate entities.

Kärlinflammation, blodkärlsinflammation, vaskulit, är en grupp av symptom, primärt relaterade till inflammation i blodkärlen. Vaskulit i stora blodkärl * Polymyalgia rheumatica/temporalisarterit * Takayasus sjukdom * Giant cell arteritis/jättecellsarteritVaskulit i mellanstora blodkärl * Kawasakis sjukdom * Polyarteritis nodosaVaskulit i små blodkärl * Granulomatös Polyangit * Churg–Strauss syndrom * Mikroskopisk polyangit * Henoch-Schönleins purpura * * Vaskulit kan även vara orsakad av läkemedel. En del vaskulitsjukdomar kan leda till döden, om inte cellgifter och kortison i hög dos snabbt ordineras.
