==Overview==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis overview|Overview]]==


'''Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) ''' is an ill-defined [[autoimmune disease]] characterized by pauci-immune, necrotizing, small-vessel [[vasculitis]] without clinical or pathological evidence of necrotizing granulomatous [[inflammation]]. Because many different organ systems may be involved, a wide range of symptoms are possible in MPA.
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==


==Diagnosis==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis classification|Classification]]==
Laboratory tests show an increased sedimentation rate, reduced red blood count, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA) directed against [MPO(a constituent of [[neutrophil]] granules), and [[protein]] and red blood cells in the [[urine]].

==[[Microscopic polyangiitis differential diagnosis|Differentiating Any Disease from other Diseases]]==
 
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==
 
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis risk factors|Risk Factors]]==


The test for [[anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody]] (GBM), which is positive in [[Goodpasture's syndrome]], is negative.
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis screening|Screening]]==


==Cause==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis natural history, complications and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]==
This condition, the clinical picture of which may include many features of systemic lupus erythematosis, has been reported to have been caused by [[antibiotics]] and also by certain [[infection]]s, though, as with many autoimmune diseases, the causes remain to a large extent unknown.

==Treatment==
==Treatment==
The customary treatment involves long term dosage of [[prednisone]], alternated or combined with [[cytotoxic]] drugs, such as [[cyclophosphamide]] or [[azathioprine]]. [[Plasmapheresis]] may also be indicated in the acute setting to remove ANCA antibodies.
