Between 20 and 40% of surviving patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) have relapses. Plasma exchange therapy is usually effective in treating relapses, but this treatment does not prevent TTP recurrence. The role of splenectomy in relapsing TTP is still controversial. We describe a patient with multiple relapses of TTP who was successfully treated with elective splenectomy.
在血栓性血小板减少性紫癜(TTP)存活患者中,20%至40%会复发。血浆置换疗法通常对治疗复发有效,但这种治疗并不能预防TTP复发。脾切除术在复发性TTP中的作用仍存在争议。我们描述了一名TTP多次复发的患者,该患者通过择期脾切除术成功治愈。
