title: Neutrophilic dermatosis: a case of overlapping syndrome with monoclonal antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody activity.
abstract: A 66-year-old male patient presented, over a 10-year period, polymorphic cutaneous manifestations with extensive neutrophilic infiltration which supports the diagnosis of overlapping syndrome of neutrophilic dermatoses. This was associated with a benign monoclonal gammopathy of IgA lambda type that had antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) activity. Neutrophilic dermatoses may be associated with or can trigger ANCA.
