ABSTRACT
Henoch-Schonlein purpura is a leucocytoclastic vasculitis commonly seen among children and young adults. Neurological complications, though rare, include focal cerebral deficit, coma, convulsion, subarachnoid hemorrhage and chorea. We are reporting a 12 years boy with Henoch-Schonlein purpura who developed a large intracerebral hematoma in right occipital lobe. He made an uneventful recovery with conservative treatment and one year follow up revealed no major neurological sequelae.
