Abstract
The case is described of a 39-year-old man with acute generalized pustular bacterid and high Clq-binding activity in the sera during the active stage. Histamine-induced vascular changes studied by immunofluorescence microscopy revealed a perivascular deposition of IgM and C3. These findings support the view that leukocytoclastic vasculitis underlying the subcorneal pustules is mediated by immune complex deposition.
