In 2024, CD19-CAR T cells are ubiquitous in rheumatology, with incredible therapeutic results in cases of severe and refractory disease. This major advance confirms the interest of the B lymphocyte as a therapeutic target, and also suggests the real possibility of a drug-free remission, at the price of minor and minimal side effects for the time being. However, the necessary perspective is still lacking for a therapy that remains out of reach because of its price.

This review will describe various disease processes resulting in pulmonary vasculitis. The clinical and imaging findings in these diseases often overlap with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage secondary to pulmonary capillaritis, a common manifestation in many of these diseases. A multidisciplinary approach is important for the correct diagnosis of these diseases, and this review will highlight the important imaging findings that radiologists need to be aware of to aid in this diagnostic process.

Objectives: GCA is a granulomatous vasculitis affecting large vessels, leading to intimal occlusion accompanied by the accumulation of myofibroblasts. Histopathologically, GCA is characterized by destruction of the tunica media and hypertrophy of the intima with invasion of activated CD4+ T cells, macrophages and multinucleated giant cells (MNGCs). Despite these well-defined histopathological features, the molecular pathology of GCA has largely remained elusive.
