[Systemic allergic vasculopathy after naproxen (author's transl)].
The authors report a case of hypersensitivity angiitis presenting with cutaneous, muscular, articular, and renal signs. They suggest a possible etiological mechanism for such disorders: a circulating immune-complex disease, and criticize the often improper interpretation of the results of lymphoblast transformation tests. Hypersensitivity angiitis, "ground base disease", requires investigation for possible underlying immunity abnormalities or neoplasms.
