Abstract
Purpura in an infant is usually an alarming sign of a systemic (infectious, hematologic-oncologic or immunologic) disease. Chronic purpuric dermatoses have not been reported in infants and, therefore, are not considered in the differential diagnosis of purpuras in this age. We report on a female infant with progressive purpura who underwent extensive laboratory investigations to rule out a systemic disease. Based on the laboratory findings and clinical course, the diagnosis of Schamberg's purpura was established.
