pubmed-article:11035270 | pubmed:abstractText | Although several etiologies can be identified in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), idiopathic cases are still frequent. Incomplete forms are more rare. Currently, the diagnosis may be made in cases of thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. According to the literature, mortality and morbidity are significantly improved with plasma exchange. However, treatment in refractory forms remains problematic. | lld:pubmed |
