Purpura and intussusception.
نویسنده
چکیده
As early as 1808 Willan described visceral crises occurring with purpura. Henoch published his classical paper in 1874, after which date abdominal purpura became associated with his name. The first report of intussusception with purpura appears to have been that of Vierhuff (1893). Since then, as far as can be ascertained, this combination has been reported only nineteen times. It is for this reason and because of the many interesting points this conclition raises that a further case is recorded.
