what is this?
Giant Cell Arteritis = Temporal Arteritis
what is this?
Takayasu arteritis. A, Aortic arch angiogram showing reduced flow of contrast material into the great vessels and narrowing of the brachiocephalic, carotid, and subclavian arteries (arrows)
what is this?
Takayasu arteritis.
Cross- sections of the right carotid artery from the patient shown in A showing marked intimal thickening and luminal narrowing. The white circles correspond to the original vessel wall; the inner core of tan tissue is the area of intimal hyperplasia
what is this?
Takayasu arteritis
Histologic appearance in active Takayasu aortitis illustrating destruction and fibrosis of the arterial media associated with mononuclear infiltrates and inflammatory giant cells (arrows).
what is this?
Polyarteritis nodosa, associated with segmental fibrinoid necrosis and thrombotic occlusion of a small artery. Note that part of the vessel (upper right, arrow) is uninvolved.
what is this?
Microscopic polyangiitis (leukocytoclastic vasculitis) with fragmented neutrophils in the thickened vessel wall.
what is this?
B and C, Wegener granulomatosis.
B, Vasculitis of a small artery with adjacent granulomatous inflammation including giant cells (arrows).
C, Lung from a patient with Wegener granulomatosis, demonstrating large nodular cavitating lesions.
what is this?
Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger disease). The lumen is occluded by thrombus containing abscesses (arrow) and the vessel wall is infiltrated with leukocytes.
