Autoimmune Hepatitis Associated with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Although autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is frequently complicated with chronic thyroiditis or other autoimmune disorders, reports on its association with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are scarce. We herein describe a case of AIH associated with ITP. A 75-year-old Japanese woman was admitted to our hospital due to increased aminotransferase levels and severe thrombocytopenia. Elevated serum ...
متن کاملImmune pathophysiology of autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura.
Chronic autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (AITP) is an immune-mediated, bleeding disorder in which platelets are opsonized by autoantibodies and prematurely destroyed by phagocytic cells in the reticuloendothelial system. It is classed as an organ-specific autoimmune disease primarily mediated by immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies and its etiology appears to be similar to that observed for...
متن کاملViral-associated immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
Chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (CITP) is a diagnosis of exclusion that occurs either de novo or secondary to other underlying disorders. Chronic infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are now well-characterized causes of CITP. Between 6% and 15% of patients infected with HIV may develop thrombocytopenia. Patients with CITP with risk factors for HI...
متن کاملImmune Thrombocytopenic Purpura Associated with Pulmonary Tuberculosis
A 22-year-old woman was admitted into our hospital because of generalized purpura and abnormalities in her chest X-ray. Isolated thrombocytopenia and elevated platelet-associated IgG levels were detected, while the bone marrow examination was normal. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was detected in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and consequently she was diagnosed as having active tuberculosis. Hig...
متن کاملFisher syndrome associated with immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
We describe a 51-year-old man with Fisher syndrome (FS) and immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) that developed after upper respiratory infection (URI). Laboratory investigations demonstrated immunoglobulin (Ig) G class of anti-GQ1b autoantibody and reduced platelet count with platelet-associated IgG, which spontaneously improved in parallel with neurologic symptoms. Thus the possible associat...
