A case of purpura fulminans following varicella was shown to be a defibrinating syndrome and was treated successfully with fibrinogen alone. The similarities between the Shwartzman phenomenon and purpura fulminans are discussed and are shown to support the hypothesis that purpura fulminans is primarily an immunological disease, similar to the ...

The purpose of this article is to call attention to an unusual syndrome that may lead to a major loss of soft tissue, limb, and life. The application of principles learned from trauma and burn care may substantially reduce the morbidity and mortality, which in the past have been associated with purpura fulminans.

Evaluation of the case need not take long. Look at the patient. Look at a blood smear. Do a platelet count. Aspirate bone marrow from the sternum.
