Background: Although vaccination against coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been proven generally safe, rare but potentially serious adverse reactions do occur. Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is a small-vessel vasculitis that has been associated with other immunizations, but, to our knowledge, has not been previously reported in association with vaccines directed against SARS-CoV-2.
Case Report: We report the case of a 22-year-old man with no known past medical history who presented to the Emergency Department with 2 days of migratory arthritis in his ankles and palpable purpura on his bilateral lower extremities, occurring 10 days after receiving the Johnson & Johnson SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.
