Abstrakt: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a small vessel vasculitis with multiorgan involvement. Renal involvement is the key factor predicting morbidity. We have aimed to analyze the clinicopathological spectrum of HSP vasculitis and HSP nephritis to assess the risk factors associated with kidney involvement. This retrospective study was performed in the department of pathology with collaboration of department of dermatology and department of nephrology of a tertiary care center. All clinical details along with biopsy findings were retrieved. Starting materials of the study were cases of leukocytoclastic vasculitis with only perivascular IgA deposit of more than ++ in the absence of other immunoglobulin and trace complements. To investigate the possible factors that are influential on the development of biopsy-proven HSP nephritis, we divided the whole study population in two groups -group 1: with and group 2: without biopsy-proven nephritis. One-way analysis of variance was carried out during comparative analysis between two groups using IBM SPSS statistics software, version 19 and MedCalc software, version 12.3.0.0. HSP vasculitis comprised 11.6% (n = 19) of total cutaneous vasculitis in 2 years (164 cases) with a mean age of 13.52 ± 8.10 (range: 4-33 years). Three cases developed de novo kidney disease (15.79%). A correlation analysis revealed that predictors were seasonal variation (P = 0.018), severe gastrointestinal involvement (P = 0.03), and subcutaneous edema (P = 0.005). Various clinical and laboratory parameters were associated with renal consequences. Occult nephritis was the most common presentation with crescent as a constant histopathological feature.
