Is this immune thrombocytopenic purpura?

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2008
When a well child comes to accident and emergency (A&E) with a history of sudden onset bruising, purpura and petechiae, and is found to have an isolated severe thrombocytopenia (TP), the diagnosis is usually obvious: acute immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). But, could something more sinister be going on? Is ITP the correct diagnosis?

Pathophysiology of immune thrombocytopenic purpura

Blood Reviews, 2002
In 1951, the young hematologist in training, Dr. William Harrington, infused himself with plasma from a patient with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). He rapidly developed severe, but transient, thrombocytopenia and was at risk for serious hemorrhage. Thus, the humoral autoimmune cause of ITP was established. Since 1953, when Dr.

Childhood immune thrombocytopenic purpura

Blood Reviews, 2002
Childhood immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is acute and generally seasonal in nature, suggesting that infectious or environmental agents may trigger the immune response to produce platelet-reactive autoantibodies 4 to 8 weeks following an infection.

Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

JAMA
ImportanceImmune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a life-threatening thrombotic microangiopathy that presents with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) and thrombocytopenia. Worldwide annual incidence of iTTP is 2 cases per million to 6 cases per million.ObservationsImmune TTP is caused by an autoantibody to a disintegrin and ...

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura

Pathology, 2010
The disease that was formerly termed idiopathic thrombocytopenia (ITP), is becoming far better understood, so much so that the same acronym has been reworked, to mean immune thrombocytopenia. Recent progress using murine models of the disease has shed new insights into the mechanisms of platelet destruction (both B and T cell mediated), and have lead ...

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

The Medical clinics of North America, 1980
ITP is a hemorrhagic disorder in which thrombocytopenia is associated with increased peripheral destruction of platelets. It is a syndrome of different diseases, all of which have in common shortened platelet survival owing to the presence of an antiplatelet antibody. Most cases are secondary to an identifiable etiologic agent.
