title: [Incidence of renal involvement in Schönlein-Henoch syndrome (author's transl)].
abstract: To determine the incidence of renal involvement in Schönlein-Henoch syndrome, authors enrolled in a prospective study all children admitted with this diagnoses from 1971 through 1978. They followed-up 112 patients, which represented the 2 per one thousand of the total hospital pediatric admission in the same period; 22 patients (19.6%) developed renal involvement. After two years of follow-up they observe one patient with progressive renal failure, four with minor urinary abnormalities and 17 asymptomatics. The single patient with renal failure represents the 4.5% of the patients with Schönlein-Henoch nephropathy and the 0.9% of the total affected with this syndrome.
