Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1995Recent studies indicate that CRTTP patients have excessive shear stress-induced platelet aggregation that is associated with the presence of ULvWF multimers in their plasma and increased vWF-binding to their platelets by flow cytometry. In these CRTTP patients, relapses, excessive shear-aggregation and the presence in their plasma of ULvWF forms are ...

Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Annual Review of Medicine, 1988Platelet thrombus formation in small vessels is triggered by certain stimuli, including vascular injury, primary platelet agglutination, or both. The formation and dissolution of platelet thrombi is modulated by proteolysis, plasma factors, PGI2 synthesis and stability, and immune mechanisms.

Platelets: Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Hematology, 2002Abstract Abnormalities of plasma von Willebrand factor (VWF) have been recognized to be associated with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) for over 20 years. Patients with chronic, relapsing TTP have VWF multimers that are larger than normal, similar in size to those secreted by cultured endothelial cells. Recent observations have

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in pregnancy
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1982Summary. A 20 week primigravida with intrauterine fetal death and the rare occurrence of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) in pregnancy is presented.
