Abstract:
Drug-induced skin reactions are common, but only a small portion (10%) are attributed to a vasculitic mechanism. Small-vessel vasculitis (SVV) with leukocytoclastic histopathology is usually described in drug-induced vasculitis; however, given the shared histopathologic features between drug-induced vasculitis and other SVV, it is crucial to rule out infectious or other autoimmune etiologies underlying the clinical presentation. We hereby sought to present a case of sulfonamide-induced leukocytoclastic vasculitis, limited to the skin, in a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome in order to emphasize the need for a broad diagnostic and clinical exclusion workup.
