Abstract:
The immunopathogenesis of IgA vasculitis and IgA nephropathy both demonstrate IgA deposition,and abnormal glycosylation of IgAl molecule is their major pathogenesis.Therefore,it is clinically controversial that they are actually one disease.The present text will delineate their similarities and differences from aspects of epidemiology,clinic,pathology,mechanism and prognosis.
