Abstract

Henoch-Schönlein purpura is characterized histopathologically by small ves- sel vasculitis with immunoglobulin A-dominant immune complex deposition. Purpuric skin rash, glomerulonephritis, and gastrointestinal tract involve- ment are typical clinical findings of the disease. The majority of patients are under 20 years of age. It is seen more rarely in adults, and the clinical presen- tation is somewhat different from that in children. Gastrointestinal symptoms are less frequent in children than in adults. Another feature of the disease, familial Mediterranean fever, is observed with significantly higher frequency in children (130/1000). Nevertheless, Henoch-Schönlein purpura and sero- negative spondyloarthropathy has been reported as a rare combination. We report herein a case presenting with gastrointestinal bleeding and purpuric skin rash, in whom, interestingly, ankylosing spondylitis was also detected

Özet

Henoch Schönlein purpurası histopatolojik olarak küçük damarların IgA baskın immunkompleks birikimi ile karakterize vaskülitidir. Purpurik deri döküntüsü, glomerulonefrit ve gastrointestinal sistem tutulumu hastalığın tipik klinik bulgularıdır. Hastaların büyük çoğunluğu 20 yaş altındadır. Erişkinlerde daha nadiren görülür ve klinik prezentasyonu çocuklardan bi- raz farklıdır. Gastrointestinal bulgular erişkinlerde daha az sıklıkta görül- mektedir. Hastalığın bir başka özelliği; ailevi Akdeniz ateşi olan çocuklarda (130/1000) belirgin artmış sıklıkta gözlenmesidir. Bununla beraber Heno- ch-Schönlein purpurası ve seronegatif spondiloartropati birlikteliği nadir olarak bildirilmiştir. Biz gastrointestinal kanama ve purpurik deri döküntüsü ile prezente olan ve ilginç olarak beraberinde ankilozan spondilit tespit edi- len bir olguyu bildiriyoruz
