Definition of Vasculitis:

Inflammation and necrosis of blood vessels, including arteries, veins and capillaries.  The damage may be due to infectious agents, mechanical trauma, radiation or toxins; often no specific causative factor is identified.  It involves immune mechanisms such as deposition of circulating immune complexes and direct attack by circulating antibodies
