  • Title: [Cutaneous vasculitis, mixed cryoglobulinemia in a patient with non-secreting monolateral pheochromocytoma. A likely paraneoplastic syndrome].
    Author: Perrone A, Guida G, Leuci D, Schiraldi O.
    Journal: Recenti Prog Med; 1995 Dec; 86(12):499-502. PubMed ID: 8588083.
    Abstract:
    We describe a patient who presented with purpuric lesions over his legs, asthenia and arthralgias. The patient was diagnosed as having cryoglobulinemia and no secreting monolateral pheochromocytoma. Two months after the removal of the tumour, the vasculitic lesions disappeared but the cryoglobulins were still present in the patient's serum. The cryoglobulins, which varied from 30 mg/dl to 60 mg/dl, persisted even during the following year. We consider this case noteworthy because the association among leukocytoclastic vasculitis, cryoglobulinemia and no secreting monolateral pheochromocytoma has not been previously described.
