This comprehensive educational course offers an update on all forms of vasculitis, through lectures, small group sessions and case-based discussions, delivered by an international faculty of vasculitis experts.  Designed for clinicians and trainees from a range of specialities caring for patients with autoimmune disease, including but not limited to, rheumatology, nephrology, respiratory, clinical immunology and internal medicine.

Building on the success of 6 previous EUVAS vasculitis courses and shaped by the feedback from former delegates, the focus will be on recent scientific advances and current innovations in patient care.  The course will provide a structured approach to understanding pathogenesis, diagnosing, and managing vasculitic diseases.  With networking opportunities embedded throughout the course, this will facilitate knowledge sharing across specialities, centres and countries.

Course learning Objectives:

• Recognise key clinical features and interpret diagnostic investigations to make timely diagnoses
• Learn evidence-based treatment strategies for each major vasculitis subtype
• Apply knowledge through clinical case discussions and real-world scenarios
• To empower individuals to identify vasculitis early, treat effectively, and manage complex cases confidently improving patient experience and outcomes. 

Topics Covered:

• Large vessel vasculitis (Giant Cell Arteritis, Takayasu Arteritis)
• Small vessel vasculitis (GPA, MPA, EGPA, IgA vasculitis, cryoglobulinemia)
• Medium vessel vasculitis (Polyarteritis Nodosa, Kawasaki Disease)
• Autoinflammatory conditions (including Behcet’s disease)
• Organ-specific manifestations and management
• Special considerations: disease pathogenesis, paediatric vasculitis, vasculitis mimics including infection-related vasculitis, complications, patient perspectives and optimal long-term management
