    Author: van Wieringen PM, van der Zee CL, Hoevenaars F, Joosten HJ, Rieu PN.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1992 Aug; 2(4):236-8. PubMed ID: 1390554.
    Abstract:
    We report on a three-year-old boy with Henoch-Schönlein purpura developing an esophageal stenosis during severe clinical course of this disease. There are to date no reports on the development of such a complication. The possible pathogenesis in relation to stricture formation of ileum and ureter in Henoch-Schönlein's purpura is discussed.
