Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura
Quantitative Disorder; characterized by the destruction of antibody-coated platelet in the spleen; shows through blotches on the skin
ITP Treatment
Steroids
Splenectomy
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia Purpura
vWF is released from damaged endothelial; causes a bunch of thrombi laid down throughout the body
TTP Clinical Manifestations

Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia Purpura
vWF is released from damaged endothelial; causes a bunch of thrombi laid down throughout the body; -ADAMS13 allows for the accumulation of the clot (mellaprotease deficiency)
