Périartérite noueuse cutanée associée à une infection par le virus de l'hépatite C, régressive après une bithérapie antivirale

This patient presented vasculitis due to cutaneous nodular periarteritis associated with HVC without cryoglobulinemia. Hepatic impairment was mild and did not require any antiviral treatment. No further skin involvement was seen after treatment with colchicines and because the patient's viral genotype was favorable, we decided to initiate antiviral therapy. This therapeutic approach should be considered by dermatologists, but it is nevertheless important to assess the risk of interferon-induced aggravation of vasculitis.
