  • Title: [Schoenlein-Henoch syndrome with abdominal manifestations without skin involvement].
    Author: Wurm J, Engels M, Tulzer W, Syré G.
    Journal: Padiatr Padol; 1992; 27(6):183-6. PubMed ID: 1484711.
    Abstract:
    The etiology of Schoenlein-Henoch' Syndrome has not yet been fully clarified [10, 15]. An allergically toxic genesis is under discussion [8, 19]. The classical combination of symptoms consists of urticariel efflorescences, bleeding of skin and lining tissue and arthralgies [8, 19]. Involvement of kidneys and abdomen may occur [8, 19]. Our case report concerns exclusively an abdominal form with colics, vomiting and diarrhea [10, 18, 16]. Chemical tests reveal a reduction of factor XIII [1, 5, 21]. There is no involvement of kidneys, skin or joints. With reference to literature and this particular case, etiology, diagnosis and therapy are dealt with.
