The thrombotic microangiopathies are microvascular occlusivedisorders characterized by systemic or intrarenal aggregationof platelets, thrombocytopenia, and mechanical injury to erythrocytes.In thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, systemic microvascularaggregation of platelets causes ischemia in the brain and otherorgans. In the hemolyticuremic syndrome, plateletfibrinthrombi occlude predominantly the renal circulation. Thromboticthrombocytopenic purpura was initially described by Moschcowitzin 1924,1 and the hemolyticuremic syndrome by Gasseret al.2 in 1955. Both disorders remained mysterious until the1980s. In 1982, "unusually large" multimers of von Willebrandfactor released from endothelial cells were found to accumulatein the plasma of patients with chronic . . . [Full Text of this Article]
