[The course of Schonlein-Henoch disease in children].
We analysed 79 episodes of Henoch-Schonlein purpura in children. Skin manifestations were present in all cases, abdominal symptoms in 51.9%, arthritis or arthralgia in 41.8% and nephritis in 34.2% of the episodes. Skin rash and haematuria with proteinuria were the longest-lasting symptoms. Skin lesions persisted longer in case of disease relapses (p < 0.05). Typically Henoch-Schonlein purpura is a benign, self-limiting disease.
