Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The case of a patient with hepatitis C virus infection who presented with symmetric ulcers of the legs is reported. She was found to have type III mixed cryoglobulinemia, high titers of anticardiolipin antibodies, lupus anticoagulant, and a free protein S deficiency. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such an association. The role of these factors in the pathogenesis of skin lesions in the setting of hepatitis C virus infection is discussed.
