This comprehensive review investigates the clinical manifestations, pathophysiology, diagnostic modalities, and management strategies across various rheumatic diseases associated with aortopathies such as large vessel vasculitis (e.g., Takayasu arteritis, giant cell arteritis), connective tissue diseases (e.g., systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, systemic sclerosis) and less common conditions (e.g., relapsing polychondritis, Cogan\u2019s syndrome, Beh\u00e7et\u2019s disease, IgG4-related disease). Disease-specific pathophysiologic mechanisms of aortic wall inflammation and remodeling, including granulomatous and lymphoplasmacytic patterns and mixed inflammatory infiltrates, are described. Diagnostic imaging modalities\u2014such as CTA, MRI, and PET\/CT\u2014are evaluated for their roles in detecting active inflammation, assessing structural complications, and guiding clinical decision-making. Histopathological findings provide insight into disease-specific vascular changes. Management strategies focus on the use of glucocorticoids, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), and biologics, including IL-6 and TNF-\u03b1 inhibitors, with an emphasis on patient-centered approaches, multidisciplinary care, and timely surgical intervention for complications. Evidence gaps include optimal screening intervals and the role of novel biomarkers in risk stratification and in monitoring disease progression, highlighting the need for early recognition, frequent monitoring, and aggressive management of aortic involvement in rheumatic diseases to prevent life-threatening complications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics16172709","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,25]],"date-time":"2026-08-25T08:00:48Z","timestamp":1787644848000},"page":"2709","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Inflammatory
