ABSTRACT
This report describes the main features of the 5 cases of polyarteritis nodosa seen at the University Hospital of the West Indies over a 10-year period. The disease manifestations are protean and only 2 of the 5 patients were diagnosed antemortem, indicating the need to increase physician awareness, especially since response to therapy has improved significantly in recent years
