“…Intramuscular vessel injury and inflammatory cell infiltration may lead to intramuscular hemorrhage or myositis in IgAV, as observed in previous reports. [5][6][7][8] Enlargement of the muscle with heterogeneous marked echogenicity or increased echogenicity has been reported to indicate muscle edema, which was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 12,13 In our case, muscle edema may reflect an early stage of myositis, although the serum creatinine kinase level was not elevated.…”

“…Muscle is rarely involved in patients with IgAV, and only four cases with muscle involvement recognized by imaging tests or biopsy have been reported (Table 1). [5][6][7][8] Among them, three cases involved the lower extremities, and one involved the paraspinal muscle. Imaging tests revealed intramuscular hematoma in two cases, myositis in one case, and both intramuscular hematoma and myositis in one case.…”

Immunoglobulin-A vasculitis (IgAV) is a leukocytoclastic, immune complex-mediated, small-vessel vasculitis characterized by the predominance of IgA deposits in the vessel walls. IgAV mainly affects children and typically demonstrates palpable purpura and edema in the legs, polyarthritis, abdominal angina, and nephritis. 1 Subcutaneous edema in the scalp and face has been occasionally reported in children with IgAV 2-4 ; however, it is rare in adults. Muscle involvement in IgAV is an uncommon symptom and typically occurs in the lower extremities. [5][6][7][8] We herein report an adult patient with IgAV presenting with edema in the face, scalp, and sternocleidomastoid muscle.

“…Inflammation and muscle pain, especially of the lower limbs (pain is caused by bleeding into the muscle or ischaemia resulting from necrotising vasculitis) are very rare [54]. Myocardial involvement may occur in the form of myocarditis, pericarditis, atrioventricular block, and myocardial infarction and may lead to life-threatening cardiovascular failure.…”

Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is the most common systemic vasculitis in children. It belongs to the group of small-vessel vasculitis associated with immune complexes, and the proper term is IgA vasculitis (IgAV). In HSP in the wall of small vessels, deposits of immune complexes composed of IgA1 and C3 complement component are found. The incidence of HSP is estimated at 3-26.7/100,000 children per year. The changes most often affect the skin, lower limbs, digestive tract, and kidneys and are accompanied by arthralgia and arthritis. In this review article we pay attention to the pathogenesis, possible clinical manifestations, irregularities in laboratory tests, and proper management of patients with HSP. The treatment should depend on the clinical condition of the patient and is primarily symptomatic. Good knowledge of the differentiation of clinical symptoms allows for quick diagnosis and the qualification of patients for appropriate supervision.
