Abstract
Primary systemic vasculitides (PSV) are multisystem diseases associated with high morbidity and mortality, particularly if not treated in a timely manner. In recent decades, clinical trials have delivered considerable evidence to underpin optimal diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. This article provides a brief overview of PSV in adults, focusing on the latest updates and recommendations for the management of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis and giant cell arteritis. © Royal College of Physicians 2020.
