“…Five per cent of patients with vasculitis have a related malignancy, which may not be clinically obvious at presentation [1]. The most common form of vasculitis is a cutaneous leucocytoclastic vasculitis associated with haematological malignancy [2][3][4][5][6]. However, reports suggest that vasculitis involving the kidney may be linked to malignancy [4,[7][8][9][10][11].…”

Most of these reports link HSP with solid organ tumours, but haematological malignancy has also been reported.…”

“…The descriptions of gastrointestinal (GI) involvement and renal involvement were added by Henoch in 1874 and 1899 (2). Although HSP has been recognized for over 100 years (3), the exact cause of HSP is presently unknown, but malignancy may be a causative factor (46). The present study reports a rare case of HSP associated with small cell lung cancer.…”
