Abstract
Eltrombopag - A Cost-Effective Single Oral Therapeutic Agent Avoiding Splenectomy in Steroid-Resistant Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder with isolated thrombocytopenia marked by peripheral blood platelet count<100 × 109/L without any other etiology or disorders that may be associated with thrombocytopenia. The treatment of newly diagnosed ITP patients is steroids. However, about one-third of patients do not respond to steroids. Here, we present a 63-yearold hypothyroid, hypertensive, and diabetic female presented with a history of bruising of skin in multiple sites.
