ABSTRACT
A 26-year-old female was admitted for the evaluation of thrombocytopenia, who complained easy bruisy and multiple petechiae at 22 weeks of gestation. Bone marrow examination was recommended, but refused. Steroid therapy was tried under the impression of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. But pancytopenia developed at 37 weeks of gestation. Considering aplastic anemia associated with pregnanacy, Caesarian section with supplementation of platelet rich plasma and packed red blood cells was done in order to terminate pregnancy. Bone marrow findings at 1 week after delivery were compatible with aplastic anemia. At 8 weeks after delivery, recovery of pancytopenia was noticed with normalization of bone marrow cellularity and maturation of hematopoietic cells.
