Acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy (AHEI), also called postinfectious cockade purpura, is a leukocytoclastic vasculitis that was first described in the United States by Snow in 1913. AHEI affects children between 4 and 24 months of age; the cutaneous finding, similar to those of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP), are dramatic in both appearance and rapidity of onset. We present a toddler with AHEI and compare the epidemiology, histology, and clinical manifestations of this disorder and HSP.
婴儿急性出血性水肿（AHEI），也称为感染后帽状紫癜，是一种白细胞破碎性血管炎，1913年由斯诺在美国首次描述。AHEI影响4至24个月大的儿童；其皮肤表现与过敏性紫癜（HSP）相似，在外观和发病速度上都很显著。我们报告一名患有AHEI的幼儿，并比较这种疾病和HSP的流行病学、组织学及临床表现。
