International guidelines for the management ofANCA-associated systemic vasculitides
The paper deals with international guidelines for the management of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated systemic vasculitides (SVs) that are a group of severe life-threatening immune-mediated diseases. This group includes granulomatosis
