Cerebral involvement in systemic vasculitides: Extracts from the guideline of the German neurological society.
Cerebral vasculitis is a rare disorder but plays a major role in the differential diagnosis of stroke, encephalopathy and headache. This guideline was developed in order to support clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral manifestations of systemic vasculitides and rheumatic diseases. It is based on a medline research and was developed in a modified Delphi process and approved by the involved societies. This article is an abridged and translated version of the guideline published in DGNeurologie: Berlit, P. & Krämer, M. DGNeurologie (2018) 1: 17. 10.1007/s42451-018-0001-y.
