dc.description.abstractAbstract Henoch-Schonlein Purpura (HSP) is the commonest vasculitis in children, and the outcome depends on renal involvement or occurrence of HSP nephritis (HSPN). Hence, a meticulous diagnosis, treatment and regular follow-up plan is needed for a better prognosis. A case of 12 - year - old girl showing HSPN symptoms only eight weeks after the first onset of HSP is reported. Symptoms of HSPN might appear later, hence emphasising the importance of close monitoring in a patient of HSP. There is a lack of clear consensus about the management of HSPN until now, and it becomes a challenge especially in a limited resource setting like ours. In our case, the patient was treated with corticosteroids.
