Tóm tắt

This is a case report on a male technician, 37 years of age, who experienced 5 acute episodes of severe thrombocytopenia, which occurred regularly every 21st day. The bleeding episodes usually lasted 12 days, and the remissions 9 days. Treatment with corticosteroids and splenectomy had no influence upon the course of the disease. The bleeding became worse at every episode, and the patient died during the last relapse. The platelet counts were high between the thrombocytopenic episodes, and higher at every remission.
