Abstract

Idiopathicthrombocytopenicpurpura (ITP), orprimaryimmunethrombocytopenia (ITP), isanautoimmuneacquireddisease characterized by isolated thrombocytopenia with a platelet count below 100 x 109/L. It can manifest itself as a hemorrhagic symptom of varying severity - from petechial skin hemorrhages to life-threatening bleeding. Both children and adults get sick. The etiology of ITP is unknown. That's why it's called "idiopathic". Among the trigger factors, the largest group is infections, pregnancy, as well as vaccinations, and stress.
