Abstract
The stringent definition of disease and activity stage as well as the performance of several controlled trials in the field of vasculitis in the past years now enables an evidence-based stage and activity adapted treatment, especially for ANCA-associated vasculitides. On the basis of available controlled trials, the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) and European Vasculitis Study Group (EUVAS) established and published recommendations for the management of vasculitides. This manuscript summarizes the treatment recommendations published in 2009 and highlights new studies which have been published since then.
