There is a growing understanding of the different syndromes that have a definite, and in some cases a possible, association with viral infections. Hepatitis C virus-associated mixed cryoglobulinemias and hepatitis B virus-associated polyarteritis nodosa are examples of a vasculitis with a definite viral association. However, various types of cutaneous vasculitis are examples of a vasculitis with only a possible association with a viral infection.
人们越来越认识到不同综合征与病毒感染存在明确关联,在某些情况下甚至可能存在关联。丙型肝炎病毒相关的混合性冷球蛋白血症和乙型肝炎病毒相关的结节性多动脉炎是与病毒有明确关联的血管炎实例。然而,各种类型的皮肤血管炎只是可能与病毒感染有关联的血管炎实例。
