Acute hemorrhagic edema of infancy (AHEI) is clinically characterized by a triad of large purpuric lesions, low-grade fever, and peripheral acral edema. Although joint pain, bloody diarrhea, hematuria, and proteinuria can accompany AHEI, most cases are devoid of systemic symptoms.• It is a self-limited condition typically lasting 1 to 3 weeks and requires only supportive care.• On rare occasions, AHEI may be accompanied by hemorrhagic lacrimation and epistaxis. Patients should be assured that the condition is self-limited and resolves without permanent sequalae.
