Popis: Multiple cerebral infarctions were observed in a patient with refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura who was positive for lupus anticoagulant (LAC) when her platelet counts were 2000 microL-1. It is suspected that LAC may have played an important role in the pathogenesis of this patient's cerebral infarctions, although she had severe thrombocytopenia.
