title: Vasculitis of the lung.
abstract: Many conditions are known to produce vasculitis of the lung but only a few major idiopathic vasculitis syndromes are clinically encountered-- and their diagnosis is very difficult. The authors provide in-depth coverage of these syndromes, focusing on clinical features, pathologic features, and diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
