    ABSTRACT


    Aim

    To perform a scoping review of the existing literature in order to gather the most relevant information in the paediatric
    dentistry field related to the oral management of children affected by Henoch-Schönlein Purpura and associated Glomerulonephritis
    (HSPG).

    Methods

    Using scoping review methodology for the screening and selection of valid articles, the steps of
    this review were the following: first, to pose a research question; second, to identify relevant studies; third, to select and retrieve the
    studies; fourth, to chart the critical data, and finally, to collate, summarise, and report the results from the included articles. Relevant
    articles published over a 25-year period, up to July 31, 2017, were identified and retrieved from four Internet databases: PubMed;
    EMBASE/Ovid; Ebsco/Dentistry & Oral Science Source, and the Cochrane Collaboration Library.

    Results

    By title and abstract
    screening and after removing duplicates, four articles were finally included in the scoping review. According to the extracted data, the
    following are the most important clinical issues to be considered: (1) the disease can appear as a consequence of a dental treatment,
    such as those indicated for oral infectious processes; (2) children with HSPG are highly susceptible to dental caries and apical
    periodontitis, and (3) in affected children, oral infectious foci must be exhaustively eradicated in order to avoid the dissemination of the
    infection. CONCLUSIONS: Paediatric Dentists should be aware of HSPG, because the disease can be triggered or worsen
    subsequent to dental treatment. Adequate treatment of oral active infectious processes, together with an exhaustive oral preventive
    programme and long-term patient screening, are the best management approaches for children with HSPG.
