    Abdominal lesions in acute vascular purpura and polyarteritis can cause severe complications like intestinal obstruction and perforation. Prompt surgical intervention and long-term medication are crucial for patient survival and remission.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Internal Medicine

    Background:

    • Abdominal manifestations of systemic vasculitides are uncommon but can be life-threatening.
    • Acute vascular purpura and polyarteritis are systemic inflammatory conditions affecting blood vessels.

    Observation:

    • A patient with acute vascular purpura presented with small intestine obturation ileus.
    • A patient with polyarteritis developed intestinal and gallbladder necrosis with perforation and peritonitis.

    Findings:

    • Abdominal syndrome in both cases represented a critical manifestation of the underlying systemic disease.
    • Surgical intervention was vital for salvaging the patients' lives.

    Implications:

    • Early recognition and surgical management of abdominal complications in vasculitis are essential.
