متن کاملSystemic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis associated with lymphoid neoplasia.
Two cases of systemic antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis in the setting of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy type T cell lymphoma are reported. The two patients had fever of unknown origin associated with cutaneous vasculitis and "pulmonary-renal syndrome" with alveolar haemorrhage. Despite anti-infectious treatments, steroids, and chemother...
