Abstract

A 24-year-old man had vascular purpuric infiltrated, associated elbows and knees’s polyarthralgia, and abdominal pain. The proteinuria was 0.73 g/24 h. Skin histology showed a lymphocytic vasculitis lesion and perivascular infiltrates, without fibrinoid necrosis. The diagnosis IgA vasculitis was made according to the criteria of the ACR and EULAR/PRINTO/PRES.
