[Pulmonary manifestations in anaphylactoid purpura (Henoch-Schönlein Syndrome) (author's transl)].
Pulmonary manifestations in anaphylactoid purpura (Henoch-Schönlein-syndrome). Radiological observations are reported on 2 female adults with Henoch-Schönlein-syndrome accompanied by reversible pulmonary disease. This form of anaphylactoid purpura has rare been reported until now. The pulmonary opacities are regarded as intraalveolar bleeding probably with edem and interstitial perivascular infiltrations. They developed at the same time as the skin lesions and are probably part of the disease. These pulmonary changes are characterized by the following radiological criteria..: 1. parahilar, butterfly-shaped opacities, 2. air-bronchograms, 3. reticulo-nodular pattern, 4. rapid change.
