Abstract
A child with idiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome had four episodes between 3 and 3 years 9 months of age, all characterized by the sudden onset of hypovolemic shock without any obvious triggering factor. Between the attacks she is well and free of symptoms. Early establishment of intravenous access facilitates volume replacement during the acute episodes.
