초록

일반적으로 혈관염은 다발성 장기를 침범하나, 단일 장기에 발생한 국소성 혈관염이 종종 보고되었다. 그러나 소화관에 국한되어 발생한 혈관염은 매우 드물며, 소장에 발생한 국소성 혈관염은 국내에서 보고된 바 없다. 저자들은 최근 반복되는 심한 장출혈이 있어 소장 절제 수술을 시행하고 수술 후 조직 검사에서 결절성 다발성 동맥염을 진단한 증례를 경험하였다. 환자는 혈관염을 의심할 만한 전신 증상 및 다른 장기를 침범하는 검사 소견이 없어 소장에 국한된 괴사성 혈관염으로 진단하였다.

Polyarteritis nodosa is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis that affects mainly small and medium-sized arteries that involve multiple organs. In addition to the systemic involvement of classical vasculitis, localized vasculitis involves blood vessels within a confined vascular distribution or single organ without clinical evidence of generalized inflammation. Localized vasculitis of the gastrointestinal tract is a rare entity. In particular, a limited involvement of the small bowel is an unusual manifestation of polyarteritis nodosa. In this report, we describe a case of biopsy-proven polyarteritis nodosa presenting as small bowel bleeding without other systemic manifestations.
