Recurrent Cutaneous Eosinophilic Vasculitis: A Systematic Review of Clinicopathologic Features and Treatment Outcomes.

Recurrent cutaneous eosinophilic vasculitis is a rare, predominantly cutaneous vasculitis described mainly in isolated reports. We aimed to systematically synthesize published evidence on its clinico-pathological features, treatment and outcomes. We reviewed case reports and case series of recurrent cutaneous eosinophilic vasculitis and related entities identified in PubMed, Scopus and reference lists (last searched 16 February 2026), using structured report and case-level extraction, duplicate handling, Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal and descriptive synthesis. Twenty reports comprising 24 unique cases were included. Most patients presented with relapsing pruritic purpura of the lower extremities. Peripheral eosinophilia was frequent, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies were negative in all reported cases and histopathology consistently showed eosinophil-rich vasculitis, usually with fibrinoid and/or necrotizing change. Systemic corticosteroids often induced improvement, but relapse during tapering or after withdrawal was common. The evidence was limited by small, heterogeneous reports and incomplete follow-up. Overall, the findings support a recognizable cutaneous-predominant, relapse-prone pattern, highlight the importance of assessing extracutaneous involvement in differential diagnosis and support provisional refinement of the previously proposed diagnostic framework.
