Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura preceding systemic lupus erythematosus.
The case of a patient admitted with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura nine years after developing systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is reported. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura associated with SLE has been described on other occasions, but in most patients the diagnosis of SLE precedes that of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. The unusual sequence and the chronological separation of t...

We report a child with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus. The diagnosis was confirmed by low ADAMTS13 activity (<5%) along with the presence of a low titer inhibitor. Her clinical course was complicated by systemic lupus erythematosus, immunosuppressant therapy, and septic shock. She responded to plasma exchange and ADAMTS13 activity levels reco...

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare dynamic life-threatening disease with systemic formation of platelet thrombi in the microvasculature within all the organs. Until recently the mortality in TTP has exceeded 90%. The progress of medical research in the last two decades has significantly improved our understanding of the pathogenesis of TTP and allowed a reduction in mortality. ...
