in Henoch-Sch公nlein purpura.
Total 110 cases of anaphylactoid purpura below 15 years of age who admitted to Pediatric
Departmen of Kyung Hee University for 8 years from January 1st 1979 to December 31st 1986 were
analyzed clinically and statistically.
The results were obtained as follows.
1) The peak incidence of age was 4 〜6 years.
2) Ratio of male to female was 1.3:1.
3) Clinical manifestations:
Skin & subcutaneous manifestation: 96(87.2%)
Gastrointestinal manifestation : 57(51.8%)
Joint involvement : 32(29.0%)
Renal involvement : 31(29.0%)
4) Recurrence rate was 19.1% (21 cases).
5) Risk factors in recurrence:
1. Duration of symptoms before admission was 5 or less days.
2. Platelet count on admission was over 350,000/mm.
3. Gastrointestinal manifestation on admission.
6) Poor prognostic factors of renal involvement:
1. Duration of hospitalization was over 10 days.
2. Renal manifestation of admission.
7) Following factors on admission were evaluated for serching prognostic factors, but they were
not significant.
Clinical manifestations:
1. Age & aex
2. URI history
3. Skin & subcutaneous manifestation
4. Joint involvement manifestation
5. Renal involvement manifestation
6. Gastrointestinal manifestation
