Abstract

Henoch Schonlein Purpura is a rare disease and its occurrence during pregnancy is exceptional. Very little information is found in the literature regarding this topic and only handful of case reports are available to throw light upon the same. Presented here is a case of a 30 year old primigravida with pre-existent disease with successful fetomaternal outcome subsequently.
