Unsuccessful treatment of resistant thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura with prostacyclin

F Salvi et al. Haematologica. 2000 Dec.

Abstract

Prostacyclin has been suggested as a useful agent for patients with thromobotic thrombocytopenic pupura (TTP) refractory to plasma-exchange. We report our unsuccessful experience with iloprost in a patient with TTP resistant to plasma-exghange, vincristine and high dose immunoglobulins.
