Drug-induced thrombocytopenia is rarely associated with statin medications. We describe the case of a 69-year-old woman who developed refractory thrombocytopenia following atorvastatin use. To our knowledge, this is the fourth reported case of atorvastatin-induced thrombocytopenia and the first reported case of atorvastatin-induced refractory thrombocytopenia. Additionally, we summarize the cases of statin-induced thrombocytopenia reported in the medical literature.
药物性血小板减少症很少与他汀类药物相关。我们描述了一名69岁女性在使用阿托伐他汀后出现难治性血小板减少症的病例。据我们所知,这是第四例报道的阿托伐他汀诱导的血小板减少症病例,也是首例报道的阿托伐他汀诱导的难治性血小板减少症病例。此外,我们总结了医学文献中报道的他汀类药物诱导的血小板减少症病例。
