    Author: Can B, Kavala M, Türkoğlu Z, Zemheri E.
    Journal: Turk J Pediatr; 2006; 48(3):266-8. PubMed ID: 17172075.
    Abstract:
    Acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy is a cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis, clinically characterized by the acute development of peripheral edema and targetoid purpuric lesions on the face and extremities. The clinical picture has a violent onset with a short benign course followed by spontaneous complete recovery. We describe a five-month-old boy with acute hemorrhagic edema, in whom the disease appeared after antibiotic treatment for a cellulitis in front of the tragus.
