Vasculitis
A group of rare disorders characterized by inflammation of blood vessels.
Overview
Vasculitis is inflammation of the blood vessels themselves, which restricts blood flow to tissue and organs. The family spans many subtypes with very different urgency and treatment, so precise classification matters.
How we treat it
Rapid diagnostic workup to identify the subtype and organ involvement, then induction therapy to control inflammation followed by maintenance to prevent relapse.
