| Abstract | ||
| Necrotising ateritis apparently confined to ono organ yet showing histological fearures similar to those seen in polyarteritis nodosa is now well recognised. To report foxl cases of apparently isolated arteritis ofthe epididymis in patients who have no clinical evidence of systemic disease. The clinical. Histological, and immunohistochemical features of foxl cases of appareltly isolated arthdtis of the epidilmis are presented. The aetiology and pathogenesis of the conditton are discussed. Immunoglobulin and complement w€re shown in in acute arlerial lesions, but this is not conclusive evidence that isolatated arteritis is eilher an immune compiex disease or a forme liuste of polyarteritis nodosa, It is impodant that any patients with histological evidence of necrotizing aferitis should have full clinical, hematological, and biochemical investigations to exclude systemic disease because ofthe clinical differences between polyartedtis nodosa and isolated arteritis | ||
