   Oral petechiae/purpura - immune thrombocytopenic purpura. Many cases of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), also known as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, can be left untreated, and spontaneous remission (especially in children) is not uncommon. However, counts under 50,000/μL are usually monitored with regular blood tests, and those ...

   Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) initially presents with a range of symptoms that may include severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count usually < 30,000/mm³), microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (evidenced by schistocytes in the blood smear), and various clinical signs such as petechiae, purpura, neurologic symptoms, myocardial ischemia ...

   [1] [2] These immune cytopenias may occur simultaneously or sequentially. [1] [3] Its overall phenotype resembles a combination of autoimmune hemolytic anemia and immune thrombocytopenic purpura. [1] [4] [5] Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a condition in which the red blood cells that normally carry oxygen are destroyed by an autoimmune process ...

   Higher counts may suggest a different diagnosis, such as maternal immune thrombocytopenic purpura. [21] Even in mildly affected babies, it is important to fully investigate and diagnose the baby because the results can be critical for the effective management of any future pregnancies. [6]
