ABSTRACT

Introduction

Heart involvement in vasculitis is rare, but potentially severe. The ascertainment of cardiac disease in vasculitis is complex and requires an integrated multidisciplinary approach involving the Rheumatologist, Radiologist, Cardiologist, and Heart surgeon.

Areas covered

the authors searched PubMed using the keywords ‘heart’[Mesh] and vasculitis”[Mesh].

Expert opinion

Virtually any vasculitis can affect the heart, but cardiac involvement is more common in some vasculitides such as Takayasu arteritis, polyarteritis nodosa, and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Immunosuppressive treatment and when indicated surgery can improve the prognosis.

摘要

介绍

血管炎中心脏受累是罕见的，但可能很严重。血管炎中心脏疾病的确定是复杂的，需要风湿病学家、放射科医师、心脏病学家和心脏外科医生参与的综合多学科方法。

覆盖区域

作者使用关键字“heart”[Mesh] 和 vasculitis”[Mesh] 在 PubMed 中进行了搜索。

专家意见

几乎任何血管炎都会影响心脏，但心脏受累在一些血管炎中更常见，例如高安动脉炎、结节性多动脉炎和嗜酸性肉芽肿伴多血管炎。免疫抑制治疗和有指征的手术可以改善预后。
