PET imaging of a 56 year old woman with HIV and advanced triple negative breast cancer with regional lymph node and bone metastases. ABSTRACT Thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a hematologic emergency that may occur with PD‐L1 immunotherapy. New or worsening anemia and thrombocytopenia in patients started on PD‐L1 inhibitors should raise suspicion for ...

ABSTRACT Background HIV is a significant aetiological factor in thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in regions of high seroprevalence, but description of HIV‐associated TMA (HIV‐TMA) remains limited to small case series. We sought to describe the presentation, complications of TPE, and mortality and renal outcomes of HIV‐TMA.
