Abstract

We report a case of ten year old male child of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) who presented initially with predominant hemorrhagic bullae in extremities. Initial presentation with bullae is rare in HSP. The child recovered within two weeks with a course of systemic and topical steroid without any sequel.
