Vascular and Vasogenic Manifestations of Systemic ANCA-Associated Vasculitis with Renal Involvement in Non-Contrast Brain MRI in Patients with Acute Disease Onset. | LitMetric

Background. Data concerning central nervous system (CNS) alterations in ANCA-associated vasculitis with renal involvement (AAVR) are sparse. The study aimed to assess vascular and vasogenic brain alterations in patients with acute onset of AAVR and the applicability of non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques in this diagnosis. Methods. Thirty-eight patients with acute onset of AAVR were included in the study. BVAS/WG, c-ANCA, p-ANCA, renal function and perfusion, neurological assessment, and brain MRI were performed. Results. Cerebral vascular alternating narrowing and dilatation (VAND) was detected in 42.1% of patients, and the black-blood was significantly more diagnostic than the TOF technique (p < 0.001). VAND occurrence was independently associated with the concentration of p-ANCA. The vasogenic white matter lesions (VWML) were found in 94.4% of patients, and in their detection, SWAN was significantly better than the FLAIR technique (p = 0.002). The number of VWML correlated with age and cranial nerve damage. Hemosiderin deposits were found in 21.6% of patients and were associated with a gait impairment and paresthesia. Conclusions. Vascular and vasogenic alterations in the CNS are frequent in patients with acute onset of systemic ANCA-associated vasculitis with renal involvement. Non-contrast MRI is useful in the diagnosis of brain vasculitis.
