Unusual presentation of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) versus catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome in a patient with Moya‐Moya disease, case report, and literature review
Coincidences in medicine are not so common. We are presenting a case of a patient diagnosed with Moya‐Moya disease and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) who presented with clinical and laboratory characteristics of catastrophic APS versus TTP. The diagnosis was a challenge because characteristics were...

description | Coincidences in medicine are not so common. We are presenting a case of a patient diagnosed with Moya‐Moya disease and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) who presented with clinical and laboratory characteristics of catastrophic APS versus TTP. The diagnosis was a challenge because characteristics were overlapping. Nevertheless, a decision to treat the patient for TTP was made with afterward improvement. MMD has been associated with multiple immune disorders; however, only one case of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura has been documented in association with this disease. None has been associated with catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome. We are presenting a challenging case where all these three medical conditions were present at the same time. |
