Churg-Strauss Syndrome

Churg-Strauss syndrome is one of many methods of vasculitis. Vasculitis diseases are described by inflammation of blood vessels. Churg-Strauss syndrome, in particular, arises in patients with a history of asthma or allergy and features inflammation of blood vessels (also referred to as angiitis) in the skin, lungs, nerves, and abdomen. The blood vessels implicated in Churg-Strauss syndrome are small arteries and veins. Churg-Strauss syndrome is unusual. The cause of the syndrome is not well-known, but it includes an abnormal over-activation of the immune system in a person with fundamental bronchospastic lung disease (asthma). While Churg-Strauss syndrome has been described to be associated with certain asthma medications, called leukotriene modifiers.
