  Acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy (AHEI) is a benign self-limited cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis affecting infants under 2 years of age. Although it shares many similarities with Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP), a number of findings suggest that they are two different clinical entities.

  We report a case of AHEI, with a brief review of the clinical, pathological and immunopathological features, and discuss the differences with respect to HSP.
