AB  - A  21-year-old  woman  presented  with  a  3-day  history  of  a  painful  ­purpuric  rash  on  her  lower  extremities  (Figure  179-1  and  Figure  179-2).  The  lesions  had  appeared  suddenly,  and  the  patient  had  experienced  no  prior  similar  episodes.  The  patient  had  been  diagnosed  with  a  case  of  pharyngitis  earlier  that  week  and  was  given  a  course  of  clindamycin.  She  had  not  experienced  any  nausea  or  vomiting,  fever,  abdominal  cramping,  or  gross  hematuria.  Urine  dipstick  revealed  blood  in  her  urine,  but  no  protein.  The  typical  palpable  purpura  on  the  legs  is  consistent  with  Henoch-Schönlein  purpura  (HSP).
