When monitoring patients with Henoch-Schönlein Purpura, also known as IgA vasculitis, a potential complication to be aware of is gastrointestinal infections (Konstantopoulou et al., 2025). A case-based review of IgA vasculitis specifically highlighted gastrointestinal infections as a complication (Konstantopoulou et al., 2025). This review provided insights from a case associated with norovirus in an adolescent (Konstantopoulou et al., 2025).
