GRANA, Diego  e  NAVARRO, Silvana. Rheumatoid vasculitis: a rare manifestation. Presentation of three clinical cases and review of the literature. Rev. Urug. Med. Int. [online]. 2024, vol.9, e401.  Epub 01-Dez-2024. ISSN 2393-6797.  https://doi.org/10.26445/09.01.3.

Rheumatoid vasculitis is a rare systemic complication of rheumatoid arthritis. Although its incidence has decreased in recent years with the advent of new immunosuppressive and biological therapies, it continues to have a high morbidity and mortality. It predominates in males, in seropositive patients and with a long period of established disease. It requires high diagnostic presumption, with skin and peripheral nervous involvement being the most affected. Nerve or skin biopsy is usually required for diagnosis. Treatment is based on corticosteroids and immunosuppressants. We present three clinical cases and carry out a review of the literature.
