- This book will contain comprehensive coverage of the vasculitides
with schematic diagrams, tables and illustrations
- Each chapter will introduce key and salient points of each condition
discussed, together with a brief description of current management
techniques
- This book will present updated and modern material but will retain
the 1st edition's approach to the diseases and treatments

In this second edition, the authors discuss the newly discovered entity of IgG4 related
diseases, look in greater detail at the role of biologic treatment in ANCA associated
vasculitis, and have revised the nomenclature in each chapter to reflect international
consensus. The addition of illustrations as well as online video content helps the reader
manage patients with these potentially devastating conditions.
Vasculitis in Clinical Practice, Second Edition, is a useful and concise volume that will help
physicians in training, primary care physicians and nurse practitioners in quickly and easily
recognizing the key and salient points of each condition
