Abstract

Abstract : Vasculitis can develop simultaneously with an increase in the absolute neutrophil count when granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor is administered. We report the case of a 62‐year‐old woman with multiple myeloma who presented with multiple papules and nodules on the face and extremities. Such cutaneous manifestations are unusual for granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor‐induced leukocytoclastic vasculitis.
