Abstract

A 13-year-old boy of the Schönlein-Henoch purpura with generalized seizures and high frequency of sister chromatoid exchanges is reported.<br>He suffered from abdominal pain and nausea in July 1986 and after a few days developed blepharoedema, facial exanthema, hematuria, bloody stool and generalized seizures.<br>He was admitted to our hospital on September 18, 1986. His family history was negative. Urinalysis revealed hematuria and proteinuria. EEG showed diffuse paroxysmal slow waves. Needle biopsy of a kidney revealed mesenchymal proliferation and deposits of IgA, IgM and fibrinogen. Chromosome analysis showed high frequency of sister chromatoid exchanges. His parent had high frequency, too.<br>It is not known why generalized seizures occur in the Schönlein-Henoch purpura.<br>This may be the first case report of the Schönlein-Henoch purpura that showed high frequency of sister chromatoid exchanges.<br>This suggest that etiology of generalized seizures may be associated with genetic factors.
