During the COVID-19 pandemic, physicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for COVID-19 in cases of urticarial vasculitis or other forms of urticaria. This is particularly important for acute presentations in otherwise asymptomatic individuals and pregnant women, where a prompt approach to the patient can prevent undesirable complications.

Neutrophilic urticarial dermatosis (NUD) is a rare condition that clinically resembles urticaria but is distinguished histopathologically. Given the overlap of clinical and histopathologic features between NUD, urticaria, and urticarial vasculitis (UV), distinguishing between these diagnoses is crucial, as their treatments differ significantly. A 47-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presented with a mildly pruritic, burning rash for one week.

Background: Hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis (HUV) syndrome is a rare form of small-vessel vasculitis characterized by a heterogeneous spectrum of clinical and biological findings. It is typically marked by chronic urticarial eruptions, hypocomplementemia and histopathological evidence of leukocytoclastic vasculitis. It may also involve multiple organ systems, with frequent articular, gastrointestinal, renal, and other systemic manifestations.

Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare systemic vasculitis with eosinophilic inflammation and variable clinical presentations. Although skin manifestations are frequent, current classification criteria do not include them, which may underestimate their diagnostic value. This prospective observational study aimed to assess systemic and skin involvement as well as eosinophilia, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA), and Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) serum levels in 20 EGPA patients followed for one year at the University Hospital of Messina, Italy, before starting Mepolizumab, 300 mg.

It is primarily known for its thrombotic and haemorrhagic complications, which dominate its clinical presentation. However, inflammatory and dermatologic manifestations are uncommon and less well recognised.
