Since recent observations indicate that treatment with high-dose intravenous polyvalent intact immunoglobulin leads to a rapid reversal of thrombocytopenia in the idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) of childhood, we decided to apply this treatment ...

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1975To the Editor.— The distinction between the chronic and self-limited types of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) was first drawn in 1951 on the basis of a study of 89 cases of ITP in the presteroid days. 1 Three points made in this review are worth reemphasizing at this time: (1) In self-limited ITP, severe thrombocytopenia may persist for as

Thrombokinetics in Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura*
British Journal of Haematology, 1970Summary Measurements of platelet production in 16 patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) demonstrate that megakaryocytopoiesis (total thrombopoiesis) and platelet turnover (effective thrombopoiesis) are increased in parallel to as much as 8 times normal. The marrow megakaryocytes show changes characteristic of stimulated thrombopoiesis.

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura in Adults
Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 2003Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an organ-specific autoimmune disorder in which platelets opsonized by antiplatelet antibodies are destroyed by the reticuloendothelial system. As a result the peripheral blood platelet count is low; if sufficiently severe, it may lead to bruising and mucocutaneous bleeding.

Infantile Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, 1990Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in childhood is a benign disease, as only 10% to 20% of the patients have a chronic course. A retrospective study of 57 ITP patients ranging in age from four months to two years revealed that 30% of them proceeded to chronicity.

Chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
New England Journal of Medicine, 1994Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), also referred to as primary immune thrombocytopenic purpura, is defined by a low platelet count, normal bone marrow, and the absence of other causes of th...

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura in Pregnancy
Clinics in Perinatology, 1985Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) frequently occurs in young women, and is therefore encountered in pregnancy. Any woman with a history of ITP, regardless of her clinical status, has some risk of delivering a thrombocytopenic infant, since the antiplatelet antibodies cross the placenta. Methods for predicting which infants are at high risk, for

Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in the elderly
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1978Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) was diagnosed in 22 patients above the age of 50 during a seven-year period. There was no female preponderance. Steroid therapy was effective, particularly in preventing hemorrhage and is considered to be the treatment of choice.

Familial idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1963The unusual occurrence of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in 4 brothers is described. The purpura appeared in early infancy and continued for 1 to 3 years until controlled by splenectomy. The thrombocytopenic purpura was not associated with any other blood dyscrasia, drug, toxin, platelet antibodies, or maternal antibodies.
