Histologically, leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LV) presents with neutrophilic granulocytes with leukocytoclasia and erythrocyte extravasation, associated with variable counts of lymphocytes, plasma cells and eosinophilic granulocytes. The association of a LV with eosinophilic granulocytes and eosinophilic pneumonia was first described by Chan et al. in 1982. Our case represents the second report in the literature of this rare disease: a 85 year old patient with LV and numerous eosinophilic granulocytes in association with intermittent blood eosinophilia and Löffler syndrome (eosinophilic pulmonary infiltrates). The recurrent episodes were treated successfully with oral corticosteroids.
