Abstract
The pleuropulmonary manifestations of necrotising vasculitis are frequent and polymorphic. If the existence of extrapulmonary signs and the presence of neutrophil polynuclear anticytoplasmic antibodies are helpful for the diagnosis of a bout of vasculitis, the existence of pleuropulmonary symptoms can also make for discussion of infections or iatrogenic effects induced by immunosuppressive treatments.
