저자들은 하지의 자반과 함께 발생한 복통, 혈변, 구토, 핍뇨 등을 주소로 내원한 7세 소아에서 급성 췌장염과 저혈량성 급성 신부전이 함께 동반된 Henoch-Sch$"{o}$nlein 자반증으로 진단하고 치료한 증례를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고한다. 급성 췌장염은 Henoch-Schonlein 자반증 환자에서 매우 드문 합병증이지만 불필요한 개복술을 피하기 위하여 급성 복증의 다른 원인들과 반드시 감별 진단해야 한다.
Gastrointestinal involvement in Henoch-Sch$"{o}$nlein purpura (HSP) is common. However, both acute pancreatitis and acute renal failure appear to be very rare complications of HSP. We describe a case of HSP with acute pancreatitis and hypovolemic acute renal failure in a 7-year-old girl who presented with a vasculitic purpuric rash involving the lower extremities, abdominal pain, hematochezia, vomiting, and oliguria. Laboratory findings showed increased serum levels of amylase, lipase, and creatinine. An abdominal CT scan revealed diffuse enlargement of the head and body of the pancreas. The patient was successfully managed with conservative treatment, including corticosteroids, and then her pancreatic enzymes and renal function returned to normal. Acute pancreatitis should be differentiated from other causes of acute abdomen in HSP to avoid unnecessary surgery.
