Popis: Patients who receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) are at risk for developing persistent thrombocytopenia. Here, we describe treatment with avatrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, in a pediatric patient with chronic, severe, transfusion-dependent thrombocytopenia (100 × 103/µL. No adverse events or medication toxicities have been reported, and he has resumed his pre-alloHSCT activities.
