ABSTRACT
Real-world registry studies of older patients with iTTP highlight diagnostic difficulties in comparison to patients less than 60 years of age with greater risk of renal injury, atypical neurological features and less profound cytopenia, which can result in diagnostic delays. However, there is no clear signal of significantly increased toxicity from full active treatment. Commentary on Gómez-Seguí et al. Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in older patients results from the Spanish TTP Registry (REPTT). Br J Haematol 2023;203860-871.
