Figure 1 Bowel involvement in Henoch-Schonlein purpura in a 15-year-old male.
A: Contrast enhanced axial computed tomography (CT) image in the arterial phase shows circumferential wall thickening involving a distal ileal loop (arrow) with mural stratification. Engorged mesenteric vessels are seen adjacent to the thickened bowel (curved arrow); B: Axial CT image at the level of pelvis shows free fluid (arrows) and thickening of ileal loops; C: Coronal multiplanar reformatted image shows long segment thickening involving terminal ileum and ascending colon (straight arrows). Another segment of distal ileal loop also shows wall thickening (curved arrow).
