    Author: Olson JC, Kelly KJ, Pan CG, Wortmann DW.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 1992 Jun; 89(6 Pt 2):1177-81. PubMed ID: 1594373.
    Abstract:
    Henoch-Schönlein purpura is a common vasculitic syndrome of childhood. Pulmonary hemorrhage is a rare complication, which resulted in death in three of four previously reported cases. We report concerning four additional patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura and pulmonary hemorrhage. Three survived the episode. Aggressive and supportive care may improve survival.
