Keywords:
Henoch Schonlen purpura, Adulthood, Pulse dose CorticosteroidAbstract
Henoch Schonlen Purpura (HSP) is systemic vasculitis mediated immune complexes, commonly found in children but have lower incidence in adulthood. Characterized clinically by palpable purpura, renal, joint, and gastrointestinal problem. The prognosis of HSP is excellent, typically to be self-limiting disease, therefore the treatment is usually symptomatic. Therapy glucocorticoid can be given for symptomatic improvement and used for persisting renal disease and gastrointestinal involvement. Glucocorticoid can be given 1-2mg/kgBW/day. This report presents the rapid recovery of HSP Patient in adulthood with Short Term Pulse Dose Corticosteroid. We describe a female patient with HSP, clinically presentation with palpable purpura, arthralgia, and renal involvement. Patient received symptomatic treatment and pulse dose corticosteroid that showed rapid recovery in the first three days of hospitalization. Treatment using pulse dose corticosteroid can advance recovery in adult HSP patients.References
