Henoch-Schönlein purpurası HSP ile ilişkili gastrointes- tinal sistem bulguları karın ağrısından obstrüksiyona dek değişebilmektedir. Tedavide oral ya da intravenöz steroid kullanılabilmekte, yanıt alınamadığında puls metilpredni- zolon PMP , intravenöz immunglobulin ya da plazmaferez gibi tedavi seçeneklerine geçilebilmektedir. Altı yaşında erkek vaka bilateral alt ekstremitelerde palpabl purpura, bileklerde artrit, lomber ve frontal bölgelerde ağrılı yumu- şak doku ödemleri, skrotal ekimotik görünüm bulguları ile HSP tanısı aldı. İzleminde şiddetli karın ağrısı ve kanlı dışkılama yakınmaları gelişti. İki mg/kg dozunda başlanan steroid tedavisine yanıt alınamayarak PMP tedavisine geçildi. Tedavinin ilk dozunda epididimit gelişen ve üçüncü dozunda halen kanlı dışkılama izlenen vakada üçüncü doz- dan sonra yakınmalerde gerileme saptandı
