  • Title: Pregnancy-induced bone marrow aplasia mimicking idiopathic thrombocytopenia: a case report.
    Author: Aboujaoude R, Alvarez J, Alvarez M, Al-Khan A.
    Journal: J Reprod Med; 2007 Jun; 52(6):526-8. PubMed ID: 17694971.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Pregnancy has been associated with aplastic anemia, but a causal relationship has been questioned. CASE: A case of aplastic anemia was diagnosed during pregnancy and initially mimicked immune-mediated thrombocytopenic purpura. CONCLUSION: Pregnant women with aplastic anemia are at high risk. The severity of the disease and choice of the patient have to be considered before treatment.
