Abstract
Two children suffering from systemic juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA)11 complicated by acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIG) are described. One had a fatal outcome with acute renal failure and cerebral haemorrhage; the other recovered. Early recognition and treatment of the underlying cause — usually an infection — as well as replacement of clotting factors are important in management.Keywords
