婴儿急性出血性水肿（AHEI）被认为是儿童皮肤小血管炎中的一个独立的临床实体。它通常发生在 2 岁以下的儿童中，几周内就会自然恢复。大多数患者近期有上呼吸道或尿路感染或免疫史。尽管肺炎支原体与多种皮疹或疾病有关，但它并未被认为是婴儿急性出血性水肿的可能原因。作者报告了一名患有 AHEI 并同时感染肺炎支原体的儿童。
Acute haemorrhagic oedema of infancy (AHEI) is considered a separate clinical entity among cutaneous small vessel vasculitis of childhood. It usually occurs in children younger than 2 years of age, with spontaneous recovery occurring within a few weeks. A history of recent upper respiratory or urinary tract infections or immunisation is found in most patients. Although Mycoplasma pneumoniae has been linked to a wide array of skin eruptions or diseases, it is not recognised as a possible cause of acute haemorrhagic oedema of infancy. The authors report a child with AHEI and a concurrent M. pneumoniae infection.
