Abstract

Ibrutinib, an inhibitor of Bruton tyrosine kinase, is used in the treatment of lymphoid leukemias. Ibrutinib-induced panniculitis has been described as a rare cutaneous side effect. We describe a case of a septolobular, mixed inflammatory panniculitis with small-vessel vasculitis secondary to ibrutinib therapy.
