abstract: The clinical, histological and laboratory data from a series of 55 pediatric patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura studied at the Hospital General de Mexico in a 16-years period are presented herein. Even when there are a few clinical features in this example of Mexican children, the clinical presentation and the course of the disease are similar to what is found in the literature.
