Abstract
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly known as Wegener's granulomatosis, is a rare autoimmune vasculitis that can follow a rapidly progressive and potentially fatal course. Cutaneous signs complete the symptomatic presentation of the disease. We report a case of recurrent cutaneous leukocytoclastic (vascular) purpura that led to the diagnosis of the disease.
