Abstract
Blistering eruptions are rare in Henoch-Schönlein syndrome. They can be a source of diagnostic dilemma but do not have any prognostic value since they almost always spontaneously subside within 4weeks. What is known: • Textbooks and reviews marginally refer to the occurrence of blistering eruptions in children with Henoch-Schönlein syndrome. What is new • Blistering eruptions occur in <2% of cases. • Blisters and purpura are distributed similarly, blisters develop concomitantly with purpura or with a latency of ≤14days. • Almost all cases remit within 4weeks with a similar course in children managed expectantly and in those managed with systemic steroids.
