A Case of Hemorrhagic Bullous Henoch-Scholein Purpura: Cellulitis Presenting as a Complication / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Henoch-Scholein Purpura(HSP) is a syndrome characterized by nonthrombocytopenic purpura accompanied by a arthralgia, gastrointestinal symptom, or renal involvement. This report describes a 13-year-old boy with hemorrhaic bullous HSP followed by cellulitis as a complication. This unusual cutaneous manifestation of HSP may be a source of diagnostic confusion, but it does not appear to have prognostic implication.
