Özet

Cancer-associated vasculitides are classified as ‘vasculitides of possible etiologies’ according to the Chapel Hill Consensus Conference [1]. All hematological and solid organ neoplasms, clonal B cell lymphoproliferative diseases, and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) can cause vasculitides [1]. Used in terminology with probable etiology (e.g. ‘ANCA vasculitis associated with gastric cancer’) [1]. Paraneoplastic vasculitis terminology is also used in many studies [2]. When the case reports were examined, the most common vasculitis-associated solid tumor was renal cell cancer. In contrast, in the retrospective study of Podjisek et al., the most common was found in lung cancer [3].
