摘要
Thrombocytopenia, a condition characterized by low platelet counts, can arise from various causes, including autoimmune diseases. Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a diagnosis made by excluding other possible causes, is categorized as primary or secondary, with primary ITP being idiopathic and secondary ITP associated with infections or autoimmune conditions. This study highlights a unique instance of severe thrombocytopenia triggered by Helicobacter pylori infection.
