Leukocytoclastic vasculitis is a single-organ, skin-isolated small vessel vasculitis. It can be a side effect of many common drugs, including biological agents. Unlike with other drugs, leukocytoclastic vasculitis induced by biological agents may have a prolonged latency period. We report the first case of ustekinumab-induced leukocytoclastic vasculitis in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease.
