Popis: Multirefractory immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is defined by the absence of response to TPO receptor agonists, rituximab and splenectomy (or contraindicated or refused) and the need of treatment. The approach to multirefractory ITP must be systematic and firstly involves reconsidering the diagnosis. Inherited thrombocytopenia, lymphoid hemopathies and myelodysplastic syndrome are the main causes to be mentioned. Multirefractory ITP is often associated with secondary ITP with signs of clinical or biological autoimmunity, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and a poor response to corticosteroids. Therapeutic management is complex and is based on the combination of treatments. New treatments are being developed.
