IgA Vasculitis in Adults & Outcome - A Retrospective Observational Study from a Tertiary Care Centre in South India
Abstract: Adult Ig A vasculitis is rare and has a heterogeneous presentation with more severe systemic involvement than childhood onset IgA vasculitis. It is characterized by severe gastrointestinal and renal manifestations along with atypical skin lesions. Management of adult IgA vasculitis is considered difficult as there is no correlation between initial presentation and long term renal outcome. There are limited studies on adult IgA vasculitis from India. The objective of our study was to describe epidemiology, clinical profile, laboratory parameters and the outcomes in the South Indian cohort presenting with adult IgA vasculitis.
