摘要：

Eltrombopag is a second-line therapy for refractory thrombocytopenia from immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The medication is generally well tolerated but can lead to adverse thromboembolic complications in rare instances. We present a case of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis with bilateral pulmonary embolism in an ITP patient receiving eltrombopag. The patient underwent catheter-directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism. Eltrombopag was stopped on discharge, considering the potential cause of venous thrombosis.
