Abstract
|
|
|
|
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) mostly presents with bleeding tendencies, and thrombotic events are very uncommon. Our case report presents a male patient with ITP refractory to standardized therapies who continuously showed thrombocytopenia and hematuria. With no evidence of autoimmune diseases or other secondary causes of ITP, he developed recurrent cerebral infarctions and deep venous thrombosis. Our report calls for attention to possible thrombotic events, as well as more common bleeding tendencies in patients with ITP and outlines rehabilitation treatment specially designed for ITP patients with rare thrombotic complications.
