The systemic vasculitides are heterogeneous clinicopathologic disorders that share the common feature of vascular inflammation. The resulting disorder can vary depending on the involvement of specific organs, the caliber of blood vessels, the underlying inflammatory process, and individual host factors. The cumulative result is diminished blood flow, vascular alterations, and eventual occlusion with variable ischemia, necrosis, and tissue damage.
Often, these diseases are considered systemic and tend to involve many organ systems, as blood vessels are ubiquitous in the human body. Therefore, it is extremely important for every physician to be aware of their manifestations. Often, the initial manifestations may be as innocuous as a skin rash but may go on to cause multi-organ compromise. Laboratory testing, imaging, and tissue samples (biopsy) may all be required to make a diagnosis of vasculitis.

I like the breakdown and explanation of the case. I especially like the discussion of the management which wasn't covered in other lectures.
Rendition diction clear and pleasant. Even if you had no particular interest in this topic, just bumped into it, you may become interested because of its diction/style/clarity being so easy/pleasant to learn/hear.
I am going to watch it it again and again, because I learned a lot from him. He knows how to teach and he used a lot of practical examples to explain his lectures.
