  • Title: Leucocytoclastic vasculitis (hypersensitivity angiitis) of the small bowel presenting with severe gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
    Author: Agha FP, Nostrant TT, Keren DF.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1986 Mar; 81(3):195-8. PubMed ID: 3485374.
    Abstract:
    A case of leucocytoclastic vasculitis involving the entire small bowel is reported. A high index of suspicion and recognition of the early palpable purpuric skin lesions in patients with acute abdominal pain and gastrointestinal hemorrhage might avert unnecessary surgical exploration in some patients.
