[Vasculitis nodularis with participation of inner organs].

The vasculitis nodularis belongs to the group of the allergic-hyperergic vascular diseases of the skin, which above all the small veins are affected at. The participation of internal organs is unusual. It is reported on a 31-year-old Syrian patient in whom a participation of the liver in form of a granulomatous hepatitis and of the kidneys appeared. A hypertension might be attributed to the participation of the kidneys. The incorporation of a thrombosis of the central vein of the right eye in this disease is probable. The main symptoms of the disease were nodes of the size of a bean occurring in batches, lying subcutaneously, and were paraclinical signs for inflammation. The permanently increased absorption-antistreptolysin titre spoke for an allergic-hyperergic vascular process induced by streptococci.
