vasculitis
Vasculitis (plural: ''vasculitides'') is a group of disorders that destroy blood vessels by inflammation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Glossary of dermatopathological terms. DermNet NZ )〕 Both arteries and veins are affected. Lymphangitis is sometimes considered a type of vasculitis. Vasculitis is primarily caused by leukocyte migration and resultant damage.
Although both occur in vasculitis, inflammation of veins (phlebitis) or arteries (arteritis) on their own are separate entities.
