    Author: Fujimoto N, Wakabayashi M, Kato T, Nishio C, Tanaka T.
    Journal: Clin Exp Dermatol; 2011 Jan; 36(1):46-8. PubMed ID: 20456384.
    Abstract:
    Churg–Strauss syndrome (CSS) is a systemic vasculitis occurring in patients with a history of asthma. Wells' syndrome (WS) is a rare inflammatory dermatosis that clinically resembles cellulitis, and is histologically characterized by eosinophilic infiltration and flame figures. We report a case of WS associated with CSS. There have been three previous reports of WS associated with CSS; ours is the fourth. All cases had bullous lesions, and three cases were positive for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
