Resumo

Article presents a clinical case of cutaneous vasculitis with systemic manifestations in an elderly female patient. The difficulty of making diagnosis was due to the atypical character of antibodies and combination of the pathology with bacterial infection on type 2 diabetes mellitus background. Immunohistochemical examination of biopsy specimens from the affected skin areas was the key diagnostic method, which allowed to make correct diagnosis and prescribe successful treatment.
