In patients with connective tissue disease, vascular injury induced by primary or secondary vasculitis syndromes can lead to organ dysfunction due to the loss of nutrient supply from the blood. Such vasculitis syndromes can be refractory to treatment and fatal. The nomenclature and the definition of vasculitis syndromes have recently been revised, and clinical practice guidelines for diseases associated with vasculitis syndrome are evolving. The present review provides an overview of vasculitis syndromes from the viewpoint of diagnosis and treatment.
