[Pleuropulmonary manifestations of necrotising vasculitis].

The pleuropulmonary manifestations of necrotising vasculitis are frequent and polymorphic. If the existence of extrapulmonary signs and the presence of neutrophil polynuclear anticytoplasmic antibodies are helpful for the diagnosis of a bout of vasculitis, the existence of pleuropulmonary symptoms can also make for discussion of infections or iatrogenic effects induced by immunosuppressive treatments.
