ABSTRACT
A 78-year-old female was admitted due to nasal bleeding and purpuric macules on both legs. The patient underwent renal biopsy, and a diagnosis of Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis was made. The patient's platelet count was 1.6x10(10)/L, and, based on results from bone marrow biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenic purpura. Despite treatment with glucocorticoid and IV immunoglobulin, thrombocytopenia continued. The patient's blood group was Rhesus D positive and treatment with IV anti-D immunoglobulin followed. Thereafter, platelet count showed a rapid increase; however, occurrence of hemolytic anemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and hemoglobinuria consistent with intravascular hemolysis was observed.
