How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T19040379 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Wegener's granulomatosis
Wegener's granulomatosis, now more commonly called granulomatosis with polyangiitis, is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of blood vessels that can damage organs such as the lungs, kidneys, and upper respiratory tract.
-
B.
microscopic polyangiitis
Microscopic polyangiitis is a rare autoimmune small-vessel vasculitis that causes inflammation and damage in organs such as the kidneys, lungs, and nerves, often associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA).
-
C.
cryoglobulinemic vasculitis
Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis is an immune complex–mediated small-vessel vasculitis characterized by circulating cryoglobulins that cause vascular inflammation, often associated with infections, autoimmune diseases, or lymphoproliferative disorders.
-
D.
Takayasu arteritis
Takayasu arteritis is a rare, chronic large-vessel vasculitis that primarily affects the aorta and its major branches, leading to vessel stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation, most often in young women.
-
E.
IgA vasculitis
IgA vasculitis is an immune complex–mediated small-vessel vasculitis, typically characterized by IgA deposition in vessel walls and presenting with palpable purpura, arthralgia, abdominal pain, and renal involvement, especially in children.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
