The authors report the case of a thirteen-year-old girl who developed clinical manifestations suggestive of Schönlein-Henoch purpura and in whom biologic tests outruled this condition and led to the diagnosis of Waldenström hyperglobulinemic purpura. Investigations illustrated the immunologic nature of this disease, outruled an underlying disease and established the diagnosis of primary hyperglobulinemic purpura.

D011694	Purpura, Hyperglobulinemic	Purplish or brownish red discoloration of the skin associated with increase in circulating polyclonal globulins, usually GAMMA-GLOBULINS.

D011695	IgA Vasculitis	A systemic non-thrombocytopenic purpura caused by HYPERSENSITIVITY VASCULITIS and deposition of IGA-containing IMMUNE COMPLEXES within the blood vessels throughout the body, including those in the kidney (KIDNEY GLOMERULUS). Clinical symptoms include URTICARIA; ERYTHEMA; ARTHRITIS; GASTROINTESTINAL HEMORRHAGE; and renal involvement. Most cases are seen in children after acute upper respiratory infections.

D005455	Fluorescent Antibody Technique	Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
