| Abstract: | We report the case of a Jehovah's Witness adolescent patient with immunemediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura after SARS-Cov2 infection successfully treated without therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) using caplacizumab, corticosteroids, rituximab, and extracorporeal immunoadsorption (EIA). Further patientsfor whom TPE is not an option might benefit from this approach. |
