Uveitis associated with polyarteritis nodosa
Polyarteritis nodosa is a rare disease characterized by necrotizing vasculitis that affects multiple systems and organs. It mainly affects small and medium-sized arteries, and can also affect capillaries and veins. This disease is also called periarteritis or polyangiitis in the literature. Polyarteritis nodosa used to be a general term for systemic vasculitis. As people's understanding deepens, it is now regarded as a unique clinical type. In the past, nodosa arteritis associated with rheumatoid arthritis is now called rheumatoid vasculitis, and polyarteritis nodosa with pulmonary involvement is called Churg-Strauss syndrome.
