He had renal dysfunction and proteinuria. Biopsy specimens of the skin lesion and kidney revealed immunoglobulin A vasculitis. Potential causes such as paraneoplastic syndrome and cancer treatment have been proposed. The administration of steroids rapidly improved the symptoms. The presentation of immunoglobulin A vasculitis is accompanied by malignancies.
