“…Systemic vasculitis shows a predilection for certain organs, such as the kidneys and lungs. In most cases, leucocytoclastic vasculitis is mediated by immunocomplex deposition, with the antigen being either exogenous or endogenous [ 115 , 116 , 117 , 118 ].…”

Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated, gluten-induced enteropathy that affects predisposed individuals of all ages. Many patients with CD do not report gastrointestinal symptoms making it difficult to reach an early diagnosis. On the other hand, CD is related to a wide spectrum of extra-intestinal manifestations, with dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) being the best characterized. These associated conditions may be the clue to reaching the diagnosis of CD. Over the last few years, there have been multiple reports of the association between CD and several cutaneous manifestations that may improve with a gluten-free diet (GFD). The presence of some of these skin diseases, even in the absence of gastrointestinal symptoms, should give rise to an appropriate screening method for CD. The aim of this paper is to describe the different cutaneous manifestations that have been associated with CD and the possible mechanisms involved.

“…The etiology of AA remains unclear, though it is believed to result from a loss of immune privilege in the hair follicle, autoimmune-mediated hair follicle destruction, and the upregulation of inflammatory pathways[31].AA is associated to other autoimmune disorders, such as Addison´s disease, autoimmune thyroiditis, atrophic gastritis, systemic lupus erythematous, rheumatoid arthritis, myasthenia gravis and vitiligo[32]. In 1995, Corazza et al described for the first time the association between AA and CD[39]. Since then, there have been other reports of this association.…”

“…Her haemoglobin content was 11 1 g/dl with a moderate macrocytosis and a mean corpuscular volume of 104 fl (normal 78-98 fl); a raised platelet count at 609 x 109/1 (normal x 109/l); and a white cell count of 5-4 x 109/l (normal [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] x 109/l). The differential white count was essentially unremarkable although some neutrophils showed toxic granulation and occasional myelocytes were seen on a blood film.…”
