Abstrakt:	IgA vasculitis is a common type of vasculitis that is generally triggered by infectious causes. Vaccines have been reported as a trigger as well. Herein, we report a case of a young man who is previously healthy and who developed IgA vasculitis after the first dose of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine Pfizer-BioNTech. The patient's symptoms were mainly skin and joint without renal or other system involvement. The patient had an excellent outcome with complete resolution after treatment with steroid tapering and azathioprine as a steroid-sparing agent over 6 months. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
