Vasculitis - Vasculite
☆ Nos resultados de Stiftung Warentest de Alemaña de 2022, a satisfacción dos consumidores con ModelDerm foi só lixeiramente inferior á das consultas de telemedicina pagas.
Deben descartarse outros trastornos sistémicos (enfermidades autoinmunes) que impliquen vasculite.
Esta é unha imaxe típica da vasculite da perna. Pódese facer unha proba de orina para comprobar se hai anomalías na función renal.

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 é un tipo de inflamación da pel que afecta aos pequenos vasos sanguíneos das capas profundas da pel. Pode ocorrer sen motivo coñecido ou estar relacionado con infeccións, tumores, enfermidades autoinmunes ou medicamentos. Os signos típicos inclúen manchas vermellas ou roxas nas pernas, afectación de pequenos vasos e, en preto do 30 por cento dos casos, outras partes do corpo tamén están afectadas. A maioría dos casos desaparecen por si só nunhas poucas semanas ou meses. O tratamento varía en función do grave que sexa, desde a redución gradual dos corticoides orais ata o uso doutros fármacos que reducen a inflamación sen esteroides.
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.

○ Diagnóstico
A vasculite limitada á pel pode mellorar co paso do tempo. Non obstante, pódense facer análises de sangue e orina para detectar trastornos sistémicos ou autoinmunes.
○ Tratamento - Medicamentos OTC
Se a vasculite está limitada á pel sen invasión doutros órganos, pódese usar unha pomada de esteroides.
