We report a case of Down's syndrome in a 22-year-old woman who developed vitamin C deficiency with subsequent appearance of the characteristic joint pains and cutaneous and mucosal lesions of scurvy. A low intake of vitamin C due to peculiar eating habits and reduced absorption due to cardiac insufficiency and treatment with a platelet-aggregation inhibitor were considered to have caused the deficiency. Follicular purpura is a diagnostic skin sign of scurvy.
