Abstract
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is clinical-pathological entity characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia associated with end-organ dysfunction. Traditionally, TTP was characterized by the classic pentad of fever, thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, renal impairment, and neurological manifestations. However, this classic pentad is only observed in 40% of cases. We herein describe the case of a female patient who presented with epigastric pain and vomiting and found to have TTP without the classic pentad but with rapidly progressive renal dysfunction.
