Secondary vasculitides
- infection-related vasculitis
- vasculitis secondary to connective tissue disease, e.g. SLE, rheumatoid arthritis
- drug hypersensitivity related vasculitis
- vasculitis secondary to mixed essential cryoglobulinemia - cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis
- malignancy-related vasculitis (usually lymphoproliferative types)
- hypocomplementemic urticaria vasculitis
- post organ transplant vasculitis
- pseudovasculitic syndromes
- myxoma
- endocarditis
- Sneddon syndrome
