Abstract

For the treatment of cutaneous vasculitis it is of considerable importance to distinguish clinically between vasculitis as primary disease or as secondary process due to a systemic disease. This implies a thorough diagnosis of the patient to classify the individual case. The currently available therapy of cutaneous vasculitis is rarely causative. In most cases a symptomatically orientated antiinflammatory immunosuppressive therapy is used to control the disease. In this review we will report on the currently used therapy protocols in cutaneous vasculitis.
