Abstract
Purpura rheumatoid, also known as Henoch-Schönlein syndrome (HSP) is a small vessels vasculitis associated with immune complex deposits of IgA. Altough it predominantly affects children, it can occur at any age. Gastrointestinal symptoms are frequent, but varying according to clinical series, and may include pain, diarrhea and bleeding. We report the case of a 64-year-old woman who had a relapse of her rheumatoid purpura presenting with terminal ileitis that resulted in an occlusion.
