A retrospective analysis of 12 patients with the diagnosis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura was undertaken with a review of pathological material. The gingival biopsy was found to be a poor method of diagnosing thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Pathological review also verified chronicity of disease. The pancreas was found to be the most severely involved organ, although serum amylase values did not always reflect pancreatic disease.
对12例诊断为血栓性血小板减少性紫癜的患者进行了回顾性分析，并对病理材料进行了审查。发现牙龈活检是诊断血栓性血小板减少性紫癜的一种欠佳方法。病理检查也证实了疾病的慢性特征。尽管血清淀粉酶值并不总是反映胰腺疾病，但发现胰腺是受累最严重的器官。
