Abstract
Hughes-Stovin syndrome (HSS) is a systemic inflammatory condition of unknown origin that is considered to be part of the Behçet's syndrome (BS) spectrum. Recurrent venous thrombosis and superficial thrombophlebitis in combination with bilateral pulmonary artery aneurysms (PAA) represent the hallmark of HSS. The diagnostic evaluation includes computed tomography pulmonary angiography to detect signs of pulmonary vasculitis. The management of HSS is based on the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) recommendations for BS and mainly comprises immunosuppressive therapy with glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide. In addition to drug therapy, PAA should be evaluated for interventional treatment. Spontaneous PAA rupture due to fragile vessel architecture can occur even in cases of remission and/or PAA regression.
期刊介绍：
Die Zeitschrift für Rheumatologie ist ein international angesehenes Publikationsorgan und dient der Fortbildung von niedergelassenen und in der Klinik tätigen Rheumatologen. Die Zeitschrift widmet sich allen Aspekten der klinischen Rheumatologie, der Therapie rheumatischer Erkrankungen sowie der rheumatologischen Grundlagenforschung.
Umfassende Übersichtsarbeiten zu einem aktuellen Schwerpunktthema sind das Kernstück jeder Ausgabe. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei gesichertes Wissen zu Diagnostik und Therapie mit hoher Relevanz für die tägliche Arbeit – der Leser erhält konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen.
Frei eingereichte Originalien ermöglichen die Präsentation wichtiger klinischer Studien und dienen dem wissenschaftlichen Austausch.
