ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

A 40-year-old Indian male presented with rash and abdominal pain, leading to a diagnosis of IgA vasculitis, a rare condition in adults. This systemic vasculitis involves IgA immune complex deposition, resulting in inflammation and tissue damage. Diagnosis relies on clinical features and biopsy findings, with management focused on symptom relief and addressing organ involvement. Long-term prognosis varies, emphasizing the importance of multidisciplinary care and patient education for optimal outcomes.
