Overview
Differentiating Polyarteritis Nodosa from other Diseases
- Microscopic polyangitis has clinical manifestations similar to PAN, but is characterized by presence of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and lung involvement unlike PAN.[1]
- Churg Strauss disease is characterized by hypereosinophilia and vasculitis like PAN in individuals with asthma and allergic nephritis.
- Henoch-Schonlein purpura
- Vasculitis secondary to connective tissue disorder
- Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis
- Wegner's Granulomatosis
- Giant cell arteritis
- Infective endocarditis
- Mycotic aneurysm
- Atherosclerosis
