We present an unusual case of a young 26-year-old male who was diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein Purpura (HSP). Initial presentation was primarily mild gastrointestinal symptoms, which progressed to a life threatening intussusception and subsequently resolved with prompt glucocorticoid use rather than typical surgical intervention. Of importance, the patient’s initial gastrointestinal symptoms without associated skin manifestations made the diagnosis difficult. In conclusion, it is important to recognize uncommon presentations of HSP as it may lead to life threatening complications and surgical intervention may be avoided with prompt treatment.

Abstract Background Henoch–Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a systemic small-vessel vasculitis that commonly affects gastrointestinal tract. The video capsule endoscopy (VCE) characteristics of pediatric HSP patients were rarely investigated. Methods Patients diagnosed with HSP by VCE examination at our hospital from February 2010 to January 2019 are analyzed. The clinical features, laboratory findings, and the characteristics of VCE findings are studied. Results There are 30 patients enrolled in this investigation from February 2010 to January 2020. The mean age of these patients is 96.9±35.8 months, and the most frequent finding of VCE is mucosal erosion, which account for 69 % of the patients, and followed by mucosal erythema or petechia accounted for 79.3 % of the patients. Regarding to the disease location detected by endoscopy, jejunum is the most common involved part of the gastrointestinal tract in pediatric HSP patients. All the patients had jejunum involved except in one patient the VCE did not pass through the pylorus. One third of the patients involved the descent part of duodenum. No side effects are observed in this study. Conclusions VCE is safe and effective in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal involved HSP patients with or without typical skin purpura. Jejunum is the most common involve location in gastrointestinal.

Abstract Background Henoch–Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a systemic small-vessel vasculitis also named IgA vasculitis that commonly affects the gastrointestinal tract. The video capsule endoscopy (VCE) characteristics of pediatric HSP patients are rarely reported. Methods Patients diagnosed with HSP and analyzed by VCE examination at our hospital from February 2010 to January 2019 are enrolled. The clinical features, laboratory findings, and the characteristics of VCE findings are studied. Results There are 30 patients enrolled in this investigation from February 2010 to January 2020. The mean age of these patients is 96.9 ± 35.8 months, and the most frequent finding of VCE is mucosal erosion, which account for 79.3% of the patients, and followed by mucosal erythema or petechia accounted for 69% of the patients. Regarding the disease location detected by endoscopy, jejunum is the most common involved part of the gastrointestinal tract in pediatric HSP patients. All the patients had the jejunum involved except in one patient the VCE did not pass through the pylorus. One third of the patients involved the descending portion of duodenum. No side effect is observed in this study. Conclusions VCE may be an excellent adjust tool for evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract in children with abdominal symptoms without typical purpura in suspected pediatric HSP patients. VCE appears to be superior to esophagogastroduodenoscopy in detecting small intestinal lesions of HSP and has an excellent safety profile.

Henoch Schönlein Purpura

By applying the PDCA model to the care of children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura, the nursing process can be divided into four stages: planning, execution, inspection, and treatment. According to the age characteristics and disease progression of pediatric patients, a complete nursing plan is formulated to efficiently implement the nursing content and improve the nursing effect. This paper studies the application of the PDCA nursing model in the nursing of children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura and statistically analyzes the disappearance of skin rash, joint pain relief, disappearance of urine protein, disappearance of gastrointestinal symptoms, etc. Finally, this paper combines the experiment to evaluate the intervention effect of this nursing model and provides reference for the follow-up care of children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura. From the results of experimental research, it can be known that PDCA nursing can improve the comfort of children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura, shorten the time for symptom disappearance, and speed up the recovery process.
