tailieunhanh - An immunoglobulin a vasculitis case without skin symptoms complicated with severe abdominal symptoms

Immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV) primarily affects childhood and can be categorized as immune complex vasculitis. It typically presents with purpura, abdominal pain, arthritis, and nephritis. IgAV can be diagnosed without hesitation when the characteristic skin lesions appear at onset; however, in cases where the abdominal symptoms precede the skin rash or there is no purpura at all, diagnosis can be challenging. |
