Abstrak
Henoch–Schönlein purpura (HSP) is an immunoglobulin A (IgA)-mediated systemic vasculitis, which is one of the rare adverse reactions to hepatitis B vaccination. Low vitamin D levels were found to be present in the majority of HSP patients.A 19-year-old woman was admitted with a purpuric rash on bilateral lower limbs and joint pain on her left index finger in January 2020. A previous history of rash occurred one week after the patient received her first dose of recombinant hepatitis-B vaccination. Routine hematological examination, creatinine, urinalysis, C3, and C4 showed normal results. HBsAg, Anti-HCV, and ANA tests were negative, and anti-HBs were elevated. Vitamin D is very low. The patient was diagnosed with HSP and given mycophenolate mofetil, methylprednisolone, vitamin D3, and folic acid. Within 1 month of therapy, the rash still occurred frequently, so mycophenolate mofetil was changed to mycophenolic acid, the dose of methylprednisolone was increased and fexofenadine was administered. In the next 3 months, the rash has improved. However, patients reported knee joint pain and hair loss. In May 2021, the patient underwent tonsillectomy due to acute exacerbation of chronic tonsillitis. Thereafter, the patient reported that the rash had completely resolved and never worsened, and the vitamin D assay was normal.Hepatitis B vaccination is one of the etiologies of HSP, although it is rare, so it is important to ask about the vaccination history in patients with suspected HSP. Correction of vitamin D and performing tonsillectomy provide better treatment results in HSP cases in this patient.
