“…Hermida Lazcano et al [11] reported a case of mixed cryoglobulinemia with renal failure, cutaneous vasculitis, and peritonitis due to Brucella melitensis and the authors concluded that all of the clinical picture (renal, hepatic, and cutaneous) was mediated by the cryoglobulins and/or caused by cryoglobulins. Dizbay et al [12] determined hypocomplementemia, increased levels of polyclonal immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA, and IgE), positivity of rheumatoid factor and P-ANCA in the patients with renal failure, and leukocytoclastic vasculitis due to brucellosis and the authors stated that they thought that this picture was caused by mixed cryoglobulinemia. Similarly, also presence of hypocomplementemia, increased levels of polyclonal immunoglobulins, positivity of rheumatoid factor, and recurrent attacks of vasculitis in our case strongly suggest an underlying immunological abnormality.…”
