Produktbeschreibung
Vasculitis refers to a group of disorders in which the blood vessels are destroyed through inflammation. This condition affects both arteries and veins. The primary cause of vasculitis is leukocyte migration and the subsequent damage. There can be several symptoms of this disease such as lung infiltrates, joint swelling, unintentional weight loss, acute visual loss, perforations, livedo reticularis, gangrene, and inflammation of the kidney's filtration units. Diagnosis may involve laboratory testing of body fluids and blood, as well as biopsy of involved tissues or organs. Treatments are focused on stopping the inflammation process and suppressing the immune system. Corticosteroids such as prednisone are commonly utilized for this purpose. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the clinical management of vasculitis. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by it.
