title: [Vasculitis of cerebral vessels, probable cause of neurological complications in a child with Schonlein-Henoch purpura].
abstract: We report 6-years old boy with Schönlein-Henoch purpura who presented neurologic manifestations: depressed state generalised convulsions, and cortical blindness. Sequential magnetic resonance imaging showed bilateral cerebral ischemic lesions in the cortex and white matter of parieto-occipital lobes caused by vasculitis.
