Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by isolated thrombocytopenia. Many viruses and some vaccines have been identified as triggering the autoimmune process, including parvovirus, human immunodeficiency virus, Epstein-Barr virus, rubella, and measles. However, ITP in association with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination has not been reported so far. We describe the cases of two young girls affected by ITP presenting a quick reduction of platelet count after receiving Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.
免疫性血小板减少症(ITP)是一种以孤立性血小板减少为特征的自身免疫性疾病。许多病毒和一些疫苗已被确定为触发自身免疫过程的因素,包括细小病毒、人类免疫缺陷病毒、爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒、风疹和麻疹。然而,迄今为止尚未有与2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)疫苗接种相关的ITP报道。我们描述了两名患ITP的年轻女孩在接种辉瑞-BioNTech COVID-19疫苗后血小板计数迅速下降的病例。
