Vasculitis in Reiter's syndrome.
A patient is described with both Reiter's syndrome and cutaneous vasculitis characterised by livedo reticularis. The development of the Reiter's syndrome immediately preceded the onset of vasculitis. It is suggested that Reiter's syndrome is a previously unrecognised potential cause of vasculitis in which infection may initiate the vasculitic reaction.
