Vasculities associated with connective tissue disease e.g. RA, SLE, sjogren
syndrome.
3. Vasculitis associated with underlying disease e.g. SBE, EB virus infection HIV infection, ulcerative coilits ; congenital deficiencies of various complement components, retroperitonial fibrosis and primary biliary cirrhosis. Predominantly cutanous vasculitis with α-antitrypsin deficiency ;intestinal bypass surgery, and relapsing polychondritis.
4. Vasculitis associated with congenital deficiency of complement system.
VII. Other vaculitis syndrome
A. Kawasaki disease
B, Isolated central nervous system vasculitis
C. Thromboangiitis obliterans (Burger’s disease)
D. Behcet’s syndrome
E. Miscellaneous vascutilis
Direct infection related to vasculitis,
Bacterial (e.g. — Neisseria)
Rickettsial (e.g. Rocky Mountain spotted fever)
Spirochetal (e.g. syphilis)
Fungal (e.g. aspergillosis, murmor mycosis)
Viral (e.g. Herpes Zoster, variable hepatitis virus infection)
→ The seronegative arthropathies, amkylbsing spondylitis, Reiter’s Syndrome, Psoriatic arthrits and arthrities associated ulcerative colitis and regional enteritis may be accompained by paricarditis and Proximal aoritis.
