title: [Central nervous system vasculitis according to the 2012 revise international Chapel Hill consensus conference nomenclature of vasculitides].
abstract: Vasculitis can be primarily or secondarily to various underlying diseases. It frequently affects the nervous system, and neurological deficits may remain even after disease remission. Because the progression of vasculitides is usually acute to subacute, early initiation of treatment is important from the viewpoint of patients' functional status. However, early diagnosis may be difficult, particularly in patients with central nervous system vasculitis. Hence, it is important to understand the wide-ranging clinical manifestations of vasculitides. Here, we summarize the 2012 revised International Chapel Hill Consensus Conference nomenclature of vasculitides from the standpoint of central nervous system vasculitis.
