Overview
A complete medical history and comprehensive renal, pulmonary, and dermatological examination must be performed to help identify and properly diagnose Microscopic polyangiitis from other diseases.
Physical Examination
A complete medical history and a comprehensive renal, pulmonary, and dermatological examination must be performed to help identify and properly diagnose Microscopic polyangiitis from other diseases. A thorough physical examination can provide insight into possible causes and associated underlying conditions. The following findings may be present during a physical examination of Microscopic polyangiitis:
- pyrexia
- leukocytoclastic angiitis
- palpable purpura
- livedo reticularis
- necrosis
- necrotizing nodules
- rales heard in the base of lungs
- sinusitis
- hypertension
- myocardial infarction
- pericarditis
- gastrointestinal bleeding
- ischemia or perforation of the bowel
- pancreatitis
- retinal hemorrhage
- scleritis
- uveitis
- uremia
- mononeuritis multiplex
- orchitis
