Abstract

Systemic necrotizing vasculitis is rare but can have serious sequelae. Despite recent advances in cellular and molecular immunology and genetics, the causes of vasculitic syndromes remain largely undefined. Although mechanisms of blood vessel damage in systemic necrotizing vasculitis are complex, recent studies have provided significant insights.
