Background: Cutaneous vasculitisis a condition with various aetiologies, morphological and
histopathologic patterns. Skin biopsy is the gold standard in diagnosis and helps in guiding
further investigations and treatment. Based on the type of vessel disrupted by inflammation
(small and/or medium), the distribution of vasculitis in the dermis and subcutis, and the
predominate inflammatory cell-type mediating vessel wall damage, a list of relevant
differential diagnoses can be generated. This study aimed to analyzed the spectrum of
histopathological patterns and to determine the correlation with morphology.
