Vasculitis

Category: Rheumatology / Systemic Inflammatory Diseases

Vasculitis is an inflammation of the blood vessels, which can cause the vessel walls to thicken, weaken, narrow, or scar, potentially leading to organ damage.

Global Prevalence

Highly variable depending on the type of vasculitis, ranging from rare (e.g., Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis at 10-20 per million) to more common (e.g., Giant Cell Arteritis at 200 per million over 50 years old) (Source: Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2017).
