Diffuse large B cell lymphoma in a patient with hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis.
Hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis (HUV) is known to be associated with malignancies. Urticarial vasculitis has been linked to lymphomas, but to our knowledge, the association of HUV and non-Hodgkin lymphoma has not been described so far. A patient with HUV who developed 10 years later a diffuse large B cell lymphoma is reported here.
