  • Title: Palpable purpura, polyarthritis and abdominal pain.
    Author: Mukhopadhyay S, Mousa S, George BR, Perl A.
    Journal: Med J Aust; 2004 Feb 02; 180(3):121-2. PubMed ID: 14748674.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient who presented with a purpuric rash and polyarthritis, but IgA deposits were not found in the skin. Abdominal pain and renal disease first emerged 1 and 2 weeks, respectively, after presentation, to reveal the classic tetrad of Henoch-Schönlein purpura. Our patient emphasises the need for careful follow-up in patients with cutaneous vasculitis, as they may develop systemic manifestations, of which renal involvement, particularly, may be asymptomatic.
