ABSTRACT

Cutaneous eosinophilic vasculitis is a rare, recently described entity clinically characterized by itchy papules and/or erythematous plaques, often concurrent with angioedema and eosinophilia. Diagnosis is base on histopathological findings of necrotizing vasculitis of small blood vessels and eosinophilic infiltrate.
This is the case report of a 36 year-old female with an unusual clinical presentation and outstanding response to corticosteroid therapy.
