This article, published in the International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases, explores the impact of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) subtype and diagnostic subgroups of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) on pulmonary involvement patterns detected on thoracic high-resolution CT in patients with AAV. The study included 64 patients with AAV and found that the most common abnormal findings on CT were consolidation, nodules, cavities, and ground-glass opacity. The study also compared the findings between different ANCA subtypes and diagnostic subgroups, finding that certain CT findings were more common in specific subgroups. Overall, the study suggests that classification according to ANCA subtype does not provide additional information regarding pulmonary findings on thoracic CT in patients with AAV.
