摘 要:Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is an immune-complex mediated inflammation of dermal capillaries and venules that can occur after infections, drugs, autoimmune disorders, neoplasms, or idiopathically. We present the case of a 59-year-old male who was treated with ceftriaxone for an abscess, S. aureus cellulitis, and osteomyelitis of his right second toe. Biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of LCV and symptoms resolved after ceftriaxone was discontinued and systemic corticosteroids were introduced.
