Severe epistaxis in brucellosis-induced isolated thrombocytopenia: A report of two cases

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LABORATORY HEMATOLOGY, Issue 6 2000
A. Sevinc
Brucellosis can present initially with its haematological findings including anaemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia and may mimic primary haematological diseases. We present two patients with complaints of severe epistaxis and isolated thrombocytopenia which was initially diagnosed as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura but which was finally attributed to brucellosis. Their platelet count reverted to normal within 2,3 weeks of initiating antibrucellosis treatment with recovery from the disease. [source]


Development and research in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura: An inflammatory and autoimmune disorder

PEDIATRIC BLOOD & CANCER, Issue S5 2006
Paul Imbach MD
Abstract Bleeding and isolated thrombocytopenia in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are phenomena of a transient or long-term disturbed immune response. Since 1980, ITP has become a model for targeted therapeutic immunomodulation with still unclear mechanisms of action. The systematic analysis of ITP aims to determine more clearly defined patient subgroups for targeted therapy and to explore the complex immune disturbances in this autoimmune disorder.
