Abstract
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in adults is associated with minor or serious bleeding complications but rarely with thrombotic events. We report a case involving a 61-year-old woman with ITP who had both acute right parietotemporal lobe infarction and acute myocardial infarction (MI) at the same time as severe thrombocytopenia (4000/μL). This case reminds us that ITP, ischemic stroke, and MI are not mutually exclusive while severe thrombocytopenia.
