We report a 17- year- old girl who developed Henoch- Schonlein purpura 10 days after receiving a meningococcal vaccine ( Menomune). To our knowledge, this is the first case report of Henoch- Schonlein purpura temporally associated with the tetravalent serogroups A, C, W- 135, and Y meningococcal vaccine administered in the United States.
