Mixed cryoglobulinemia is a systemic vasculitis associated with hepatitis C infection. We present a case of mixed cryoglobulinemia induced by interferon-alpha therapy for hepatitis C infection and review previous cases in which cryoglobulinemic symptom exacerbations were caused by interferon-alpha.
