Intravenous drug abuse mimicking vasculitis.

D Khanna1, T J Drehmer.   

Abstract

"Mimickers" of vasculitis are well-documented in the literature. We report a case of intravenous drug abuse manifesting with signs and symptoms suggestive of vasculitis. This case highlights the need for diagnostic precision in the evaluation of suspected vasculitis.
