Improvement of recurrent urticaria in a patient with Schnitzler syndrome associated with B-cell lymphoma with combination rituximab and radiotherapy
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 08/26/09

Murota H et al. – The authors describe a case of intractable chronic urticaria accompanied by a retroperitoneal neoplasm. IgM monoclonal gammopathy, lumber pain, intermittent fever, and elevation of C–reactive protein were the clues for the diagnosis of Schnitzler syndrome. An evaluation for malignancy using systemic computed tomography scan and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography revealed the retroperitoneal tumor, and a subsequent bone–marrow aspirate confirmed the diagnosis of B–cell lymphoma.
