  • Title: [Massive colorectal hemorrhage in adult Schönlein-Henoch purpura].
    Author: Novák J, Libor J.
    Journal: Orv Hetil; 1993 Jul 04; 134(27):1479-81. PubMed ID: 8351133.
    Abstract:
    Schönlein-Henoch purpura is a well known syndrome, rare in adults, and is seldom accompanied with extensive colorectal haemorrhage. In abdominal purpura, the small bowel is more frequently involved, but cases of oesophageal, gastroduodenal and colorectal localisation also have been reported. The cases with colorectal bleeding, appearing in adulthood and elderly patients, could cause differential diagnostic problems. Described endoscopic features of one patient, who was referred to our department, because of colorectal bleeding. The treatment, course of disease and endoscopic follow-up is presented. No previous endoscopic documentation of this type of localisation has been reported in Hungarian literature, so far.
