IgA Nephropathy with Leucocytoclastic Vasculitis

Leucocytoclastic vasculitis is a rare type of allergic disease caused by immune complexes. IgA nephropathy is a glomerulopathy characterized by recurrent episodes of gross haematuria or microscopic haematuria and IgA deposition in the glomerular mesangial region. IgA nephropathy complicating leucocytoclastic vasculitis is rare documented. We present a case of IgA nephropathy in a 47-year-old woman with leucocytoclastic vasculitis and discuss the clinical and pathological data, aiming to promote the diagnosis and treatment of this specific clinical manifestation.
