Vasculitis - Vaskulitis
☆ I 2022 Stiftung Warentest-resultaterne fra Tyskland var forbrugernes tilfredshed med ModelDerm kun lidt lavere end med betalte telemedicinske konsultationer.
Andre systemiske lidelser (autoimmune sygdomme), der involverer vaskulitis, bør udelukkes.
Dette er et typisk billede af vaskulitis i benet. En urinprøve kan udføres for at kontrollere for abnormiteter i nyrefunktionen.

Of the 61 patients studied, hypersensitivity vasculitis (HSV) [23 (37.7%)] and Henoch Schonlein purpura (HSP) [16 (26.2%)] were the two most common forms. Systemic involvement was seen in 32 (52.45%) patients. Drugs were implicated in 12 (19.7%) cases, infections in 7 (11.4%) and connective tissue disorders in 4 (6.5%) cases. No association was seen between history of drug intake and tissue eosinophilia and also between histologically severe vasculitis and clinical severity.
Leukocytoclastic vasculitis er en type hudbetændelse, der påvirker små blodkar i hudens dybe lag. Det kan ske uden kendt årsag eller være forbundet med infektioner, tumorer, autoimmune sygdomme eller medicin. Typiske tegn inkluderer røde eller lilla pletter på benene, involvering af små kar, og i omkring 30 procent af tilfældene er andre dele af kroppen også påvirket. De fleste tilfælde forsvinder af sig selv inden for et par uger til måneder. Behandlingen varierer baseret på, hvor alvorlig den er, fra gradvist at reducere orale kortikosteroider til at bruge andre lægemidler, der sænker inflammation uden steroider.
Leukocytoclastic vasculitis is a cutaneous, small-vessel vasculitis of the dermal capillaries and venules. This condition can be idiopathic or can be associated with infections, neoplasms, autoimmune disorders, and drugs. Key clinical features of leukocytoclastic vasculitis include palpable purpura on the lower extremity, small vessel involvement, and, in about 30 percent of individuals, extracutaneous involvement. Most cases of idiopathic cutaneous, small vessel vasculitis are self-limited with 90 percent of cases resolving in weeks to months of onset. Otherwise, treatment depends on the severity of disease and can range from an oral corticosteroid taper to various steroid-sparing immunosuppressive agents.

○ Diagnose
Vaskulitis begrænset til huden kan forbedres over tid. Blod- og urinprøver kan dog udføres for at påvise systemiske eller autoimmune lidelser.
○ Behandling ― OTC-lægemidler
Hvis vaskulitis er begrænset til huden uden invasion af andre organer, kan en steroidsalve bruges.
