RESUMEN
Intravenous Anti-Rhesus-D immunoglobulin (Anti-D) is a first-line treatment option for immune thrombocytopenia in non-splenectomised and RhD-positive patients. In this report, we retrospectively review our experience with intramuscular (IM) Anti-D treatment in 74 adult patients between 1990 and 2018. We found that 73% of patients showed a response; almost all of them had complete responses (68.9%), and 26% achieved complete responses sustained at least 6 months after treatment discontinuation. [Correction added on 02 December 2022, after first online publication: In the preceding sentence, '(68.89%)' has been corrected to '(68.9%)' in this version.] No significant side effects were observed with no cases of acute haemolysis or anaemia reported. We conclude from this study that IM Anti-D is an effective and safe treatment for immune thrombocytopenia.
