Acute infantile hemorrhagic edema: Case report
Özet
Acute infantile hemorrhagic edema is a rare benign leukcytoclastic vasculitis of childhood, usually seen under 2 two-year old, characterized by fever and purpuric rashes on face, ears and extremities. Most of the cases resolve spontaneously without any sequel. Cases of lifethreatening and requiring emergent and intensive care, especially purpura fulminans and meningococcemia, should be thought in the differential diagnosis. We described here a 16-month old boy with acute infantile hemorrhagic edema.
