Therapy and clinical evolution are described in 94 cases of rheumatic peliosis accepted in about twenty years in the second division of the pediatric department. In 52 cases (55 per cent) at the first stage of the disease chlorpromazinic treatment only was performed and gradually replaced by prednisonich therapy; in other 36 lighter cases, (37 per cent) the treatment was prednisonic only. Other six cases were not treated at all. It is pointed out the chlorpromazine capacity to make every clinical sign vanish in a few days only allowing to practise prednisonic treatment and therefore obstaining remarkable reduction of the child's pain. It is also remarked the harmloness of the treatment performed which is therefore recommended in the therapy of Schoenlein Henoch disease.
