We describe a case of a young adult female with Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) presenting with cutaneous and gastrointestinal manifestations. Biopsy revealed a leukocytoclastic vasculitis in the skin. Steroid therapy led to initial resolution of the symptoms followed by a relapse of rashes and subsequent introduction of azathioprine. HSP is the most common childhood vasculitis and uncommonly seen in adults. Early recognition of the disease, especially in the atypical age group, as in our patient, and appropriate intervention can mitigate the disease and limit organ damage.
