RESUMEN
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) belongs to the group of diseases called Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA). While several triggering conditions are known, often none is apparent in the individual case. We report a patient presenting with TTP that was associated with a Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection, with its consequent diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic implications. Further, our case had individual clinical features that were of interest within the TTP-HIV subgroup.
