Abstract

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a hematopoietic growth factor (HGF) with many applications in cancer therapy. Many cutaneous adverse reactions associated with G-CSF have been reported in recent years, including injection site reactions, pyoderma gangrenosum, Sweet's syndrome, cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis, and widespread folliculitis. We report a case of vasculitis with atypical myeloid cell induced by G-CSF on the lower extremities
