	Principles of Pediatric Dermatology - Chapter40 : CUTANEOUS VASCULAR DISEASES PURPURA
		Purpura is normally distinguished from erythema when pressure is applied by finger or by pressure of a slide on the erythematous patch (diascopy)fails to blanch the lesion.
		Purpura may be associated with infection such as septicemia, meningococcal, rickettesial, viral infections and subacute bacterial endocarditis.
		It is a distinctive disorder, comprising a combination of purpura, often in a cockade pattern, and an inflammatory edema of the limbs and face, occurring almost exclusively in children under the age of 2 years, with a tendency to recurrence in the short term and subsequent spontaneous resolution.

	Evaluating the Child with Purpura - August, 2001 - American Family Physician
		The normal hemostatic mechanisms are vascular response, platelet plug formation and activation of coagulation factors with the formation of fibrin to stabilize the platelet plug.
		Purpura fulminans is an acute, often lethal syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulopathy.
		Purpura fulminans may develop because of a severe bacterial infection, notably meningococcal disease, or because of protein C or S deficiency.

	Thrombotic Thromboctyopenic Purpura
		Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare blood condition characterized by the formation of small clots (thrombi) within the circulation, which results in the consumption of platelets and thus a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia).
		Thereafter, the emphasis of reports on Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura was almost uniformly on the triad, consisting of thrombocytopenia purpura, hemolytic anemia, and varying neurologic manifestations.
		Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura and Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome were once thought to represent opposite ends of the spectrum of the same disease process and are classified by some as thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA).

		Benign vascular lesions are overgrown enlarged blood vessels or multiple small vessels.
		There is a way to treat these vessels, safely, easily and effectively with the VBeam laser for vascular lesions by targeting the red blood cells which in turn heat and damage the vessels.
		The laser is safe and effective because of its unique ability to selectively treat the blood vessels of a vascular lesion without adversely affecting the surrounding tissue.

	eMedicine - Henoch-Schoenlein Purpura : Article Excerpt by Noah S Scheinfeld
		However, Schönlein first described the combination of acute purpura and arthritis in children in 1837, and Henoch reported the manifestations of abdominal pain and nephritis in 1874.
		The dominant clinical features of HSP are cutaneous purpura, arthritis, abdominal pain, GI bleeding, orchitis, and nephritis.
		IgA aggregates or IgA complexes with complement deposited in target organs, resulting in elaboration of inflammatory mediators, including vascular prostaglandins such as prostacyclin, may play a central role in the pathogenesis of HSP vasculitis.
