The most common vasculitis associated with malignancy is inflammation of small vessels that most commonly presents as cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Hematologic malignancies are more commonly associated than solid tumors and the development of cutaneous inflammation is the result of circulating immune complexes containing tumor antigens deposited along the vascular walls, leading to complement activation and vascular inflammation. About one third of leukocytoclastic vasculitis cases can precede the clinical appearance of cancer by weeks to months. We report a case of a patient with metastasic gastric cancer with progression and cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis associated.
