Vasculitis is classified based on the involved-vessel size: small, medium, and large vessels vasculitis. The clinical presentation of vasculitis is variable, and it helps to differentiate between the different vasculitis conditions. Also age, race, organ system involvement, histopathology, and serology can facilitate further classification of vasculitis. Management of vasculitis frequently requires a multispecialty approach involving rheumatology, nephrology, neurology, vascular surgery, and cardiology making coordination of care essential. Historically, vasculitis has evolved from an illness with high morbidity and mortality to one of challenging management with recurrent flares and a goal of remission.
