Clinical Dilemmas in Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura With Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Outcomes.
Curēus 2023 October
This report elucidates a unique case of a 39-year-old female with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who developed a rare and severe complication: diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). Despite initial treatments for ITP, the patient experienced fluctuating platelet (PLT) counts and shortness of breath, which were later identified as symptoms of DAH. An urgent splenectomy improved the patient's platelet counts and overall condition. This case underscores the imperative to recognize DAH as a possible ITP complication, requiring clinicians' vigilance for prompt diagnosis and intervention. The intricate nature of ITP in adults necessitates individualized, patient-centered treatment approaches to enhance outcomes. This report provides invaluable insights into the clinical understanding and management of ITP and its complications through detailed analysis and documentation of the patient's treatment journey.
