Overview

There are no known direct causes for Microscopic polyangiitis. Microscopic polyangiitis can affect individuals from all ethnicities and of any age group.Vasculitis is a common term that refers to inflammation of the blood vessels in the body. When the inflammation progress it lead to weakening and stretch of the blood vessels and forms a an aneurysm.
