| purpura angioneurotica | An eruption marked by angioneurotic oedema, petechiae, and hyperesthesia of the skin and gastric mucous membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| purpura annularis telangiectodes | Asymptomatic annular lesions, principally of the lower extremities of adolescent males, in which the peripheral portion is composed of purpura or petechiae with brawny staining of haemosiderin deposits and minute telangiectasia. Synonym: Majocchi's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura fulminans | A severe and rapidly fatal form of purpura haemorrhagica, occurring especially in children, with hypotension, fever, and disseminated intravascular coagulation, usually following an infectious illness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura haemorrhagica | idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura |
| purpura, hyperglobulinaemic | Purpura associated with an increase in gamma-globulins. The condition is no longer considered a specific entity since the clinical and laboratory findings are observed in a variety of haematologic conditions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| purpura iodica | Iodic purpura, an eruption of discrete miliary petechiae, usually confined to the lower extremities, appearing in rare instances on administration of any of the iodides. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura nervosa | <dermatology> This relatively rare disorder is characterised by skin purpura, joint pains, abdominal pain and renal disease (glomerulonephritis). Although Henoch-Schonlein purpura or anaphylactoid purpura, is thought to be a immune complex mediated disease, its exact cause is unknown. Its typical benign coarse can, however, include renal failure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| purpura pulicans | Purpura pulicosa, petechiae caused by the bites of insects and animal parasites. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura rheumatica | <dermatology> This relatively rare disorder is characterised by skin purpura, joint pains, abdominal pain and renal disease (glomerulonephritis). Although Henoch-Schonlein purpura or anaphylactoid purpura, is thought to be a immune complex mediated disease, its exact cause is unknown. Its typical benign coarse can, however, include renal failure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| purpura, schoenlein-henoch | A form of nonthrombocytopenic purpura due to a hypersensitivity vasculitis (vasculitis, hypersensitivity) associated with a variety of clinical symptoms including urticaria and erythema, arthropathy and arthritis, gastrointestinal symptoms, and renal involvement. (12 Dec 1998) |
| purpura senilis | The occurrence of petechiae and ecchymoses on the atrophic skin of the legs in aged and debilitated subjects. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura simplex | The eruption of petechiae or larger ecchymoses, usually unaccompanied by constitutional symptoms and not associated with systemic illness. Synonym: nonthrombocytopenic purpura. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura symptomatica | A petechial eruption in scarlet fever and other exanthemas. (05 Mar 2000) |
| purpura, thrombocytopenic | Any form of purpura in which the platelet count is decreased. Many forms are thought to be caused by immunological mechanisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| purpura, thrombocytopenic, idiopathic | Thrombocytopenia occurring in the absence of toxic exposure or a disease associated with decreased platelets. It is mediated by immune mechanisms, in most cases IgG autoantibodies which attach to platelets and subsequently undergo destruction by macrophages. The disease is seen in acute (affecting children) and chronic (adult) forms. (12 Dec 1998) |
