Mycophenolate mofetil therapy for juvenile dermatomyositis with immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
Modern Rheumatology 2012 April
A 6-year-old girl, who had received corticosteroid and cyclosporine on the diagnosis of interstitial pneumonitis related to juvenile dermatomyositis, developed severe thrombocytopenia. Her thrombocytopenia was resistant to repeated intravenous immunoglobulin administration and methylprednisolone pulse therapy. After additional treatment with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), instead of cyclosporine, the thrombocytopenia improved, facilitating a reduction in the dose of corticosteroid without exacerbation of the interstitial pneumonitis. We propose MMF as effective option in the treatment of immune thrombocytopenic purpura with autoimmune disease.
