What is IgA Vasculitis Overview and Management about?
IgA vasculitis (IgAV), formerly known as Henoch-Schonlein purpura, is a small vessel vasculitis primarily affecting children, often following infections. Symptoms include palpable purpura, arthritis, abdominal pain, and renal involvement, which is more severe in adults. While typically self-limiting with supportive treatment, severe cases may require glucocorticoids, and all patients need follow-up to monitor for chronic renal disease.
