Isolated pulmonary vasculitis associated with nilotinib use: A case report

An association between tyrosine-kinase inhibitor therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia and vascular adverse events including peripheral arterial disease, coronary artery disease, and pulmonary hypertension has been described. We present a patient who developed isolated pulmonary artery vasculitis res...

While monitoring for cardiovascular events is important, clinicians should also recognize possible drug-induced vasculitis during chronic nilotinib therapy.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2213048920300200Chronic myeloid leukemiaLarge vessel vasculitisPulmonary vasculitisPulmonary arteritisArteritisVasculitis
