Abstract
This chapter is organized according to large, medium and small vessel vasculitis as proposed by the Chapel Hill Consensus Conference on the nomenclature of systemic vasculitis. The subset of small vessel vasculitic lesions will be addressed according to the predominant inflammatory cell infiltrate or feature (neutrophilic, urticarial, fibrosing, lymphocytic and granulomatous). The final section will address neutrophilic dermatoses and vasculopathies.
