Abstract
Patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) presenting with indications for dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) can be difficult to manage due to the precarious balance of managing the need for increased platelet counts as well as inhibition of platelet activity. This case represents a 65 year old woman with ITP who presented with a bilateral subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to a left ophthalmic aneurysm that required placement of a pipeline embolization device (PED) necessitating DAPT. After treatment of her ITP with pulse dexamethasone for four days, she was safely discharged on one month of DAPT with aspirin and ticagrelor then switched to aspirin monotherapy without any immediate complications. During her period of DAPT, she did not receive additional medical treatment for her ITP. This case successfully presents a high-risk ITP patient requiring DAPT for a neurosurgical procedure and illustrates that these patients can be safely and successfully treated with DAPT once their ITP is stabilized.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
