متن کاملIdiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and pregnancy.
ITP is the most common autoimmune disease during pregnancy. Whereas the maternal risk due to the extreme thrombocytopenia can be calculated, the risk to the foetus is difficult to predict. As there is no correlation between maternal and foetal platelet count, no generalisations can be made as to the preferable method of delivery. The methods of treatment with special reference to pregnancy and ...

A platelet count enables one to exclude the nonthrombocytopenic variety, but more elaborate investigations are needed to exclude other primary conditions which are often associated with thrombocytopenia, e.g. leukaemia. There remains a group of patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and it is w...
