Zusammenfassung

Die IgA-Vaskulitis (IgAV), früher auch als Purpura Schönlein-Henoch bezeichnet, ist eine leukozytoklastische Vaskulitis mit IgA-haltigen Immunkomplexablagerungen in den kleinen Gefäßen der Haut, des Gastrointestinaltrakts und der Nieren. Klinisch manifestiert sich die Erkrankung mit einer palpablen Purpura, Bauchschmerzen, Nephritis sowie Arthralgien und/oder Arthritis.

Die IgAV ist mit einer Inzidenz von 10–20/100.000 die häufigste Vaskulitis des Kindes- und Jugendalters. Zur klinischen Diagnosestellung sind obligat erforderlich die palpable Purpura sowie mindestens eine weitere Organmanifestation oder der histopathologische Nachweis einer leukozytoklastischen Vaskulitis mit vornehmlich IgA-haltigen Immunkomplex-Ablagerungen.

Die Prognose der IgAV ist sehr gut; in den meisten Fällen ist eine supportive Therapie ausreichend. Die IgAV geht in ca. 30–60 % der Fälle mit einer renalen Beteiligung einher, die in ca. 80 % der Fälle als milde mesangioproliferative Glomerulonephritis mit Hämaturie und/oder geringer Proteinurie verläuft und folgenlos abheilt. In 20 % der Fälle kann es zu einer schweren Nephritis mit nephritischem und/oder nephrotischem Syndrom kommen.
