Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) occurs more commonly in women and so can be associated with pregnancy. The time during pregnancy with greatest risk for development of TTP is near term and during the post partum period. TTP occurring in early trimester is uncommon and is also associated with great maternal and fetal mortality. We report a successful outcome of pregnancy in a woman with TTP in early first trimester who was treated with therapeutic plasma exchange.
血栓性血小板减少性紫癜(TTP)在女性中更为常见,因此可能与妊娠有关。妊娠期间发生TTP风险最高的时间是接近足月时和产后时期。妊娠早期发生TTP并不常见,且也与较高的孕产妇和胎儿死亡率相关。我们报告了一名妊娠早期患有TTP的女性经治疗性血浆置换治疗后成功妊娠的病例。
