Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
Blood Coagulation & Fibrinolysis, 1992Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is an uncommon disorder, but it continues to be of considerable interest. The disease mechanisms are unclear and the aetiology is unknown. Perhaps most enigmatic of all, the mode of action of plasma therapy, which successfully induces remission in about two-thirds of cases, is wholly inexplicable. There are currently

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
Disease-a-Month, 2014Moschowitz first described thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) in 1925 in a 16-yearold female who presented with fever, petechiae, and a microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. Autopsy examination at the time revealed hyaline thrombi in the vascular beds of many organs. By 1947, several more cases were described and Singer suggested the term TTP.

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 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.
