Resumen

Las vasculitis asociadas a ANCA son enfermedades autoinmunes crónicas que se caracterizan por inflamación y destrucción de vasos de pequeño tamaño que clinicamente se traduce en importante morbilidad y alta mortalidad. Existen varias alternativas terapéuticas con efectos adversos serios, las cuales se han implementado en forma arbitraria. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue elaborar un documento de consenso sobre el abordaje terapéutico de esta patología. Este documento nos permitirá tratar a los pacientes bajo un protocolo estandarizado, lo que mejorará el control y seguimiento de los casos y facilitará evaluar la eficacia y seguridad del esquema terapéutico.
