Abstract:
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.

Disorders of Leukocytes
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes. Similarly, autoimmune diseases like lupus and viral infections such as HIV can prompt the immune system...
