Palpable purpura usually occurs as the first clinical finding. However, gastrointestinal symptoms can rarely appear before the rash and may cause delays in diagnosis. Here, we present a case of Henoch Schönlein Purpura who underwent appendectomy with the diagnosis of acute abdomen and developed skin involvement in clinical follow-up. Another important point of our case is; In the genetic analysis performed in our patient with Henoch Schönlein purpura attack, Familial Mediterranean Fever was diagnosed with heterozygous mutation M694V and V726A . Since Henoch Schönlein Purpura is more common in Familial Mediterranean Fever patients; Familial Mediterranean Fever findings should be questioned in patients with Henoch Schönlein Purpura and gene mutation analysis should be performed if Familial Mediterranean Fever findings are specified.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGenel ve Dahili TıpArticle5230931310.29058/mjwbs.8903781110405
