We report a case of a 29-year-old women in whom a unique constellation of hematological disorders occurred. The patient had been diagnosed with idiopathic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in 2007, with a history of several thrombocytopenic flares. She now presented with homonymous hemianopia accompanied by thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) and was soon after diagnosed with a posterior stroke. Symptoms were more reminiscent of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP) rather than ITP. Immediate treatment with plasma exchange and caplacizumab curtailed MAHA, and progressive ischemic disease was averted. ADAMTS-13 testing confirmed the diagnosis of immune-mediated aTTP. Repeated testing for ITP, however, also showed IgG-loaded thrombocytes with the former known anti-GPIIb/IIIa specificity. Furthermore, autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) could be detected by direct antiglobulin test showing IgG and complement loading of the patient's erythrocytes. The autoimmune background of all three entities suggested an underlying systemic disease. Indeed, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) serology was strongly positive allowing for the diagnosis of SLE. ITP and AIHA as well as aTTP can be secondary to SLE, but emergence of all three disorders has not been reported at the same time.</p>","PeriodicalId":510898,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nephrology.
