MARIN ANDRES, Marta; MIRALBES TERRAZA, Sheila and MEDRANO SAN ILDEFONSO, Marta. Isolated thrombopenia is not always primary immune thrombopenia. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.86, pp.e61-e64. Epub Sep 27, 2021. ISSN 1139-7632.
Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology that affects multiple organs and systems. Pediatric SLE is more frequent in girls and has a peak incidence between 12-16 years. The most frequent clinical manifestations are constitutional symptoms, arthritis, malar erythema and hematological abnormalities. Thrombopenia appears in 50% of cases and is the initial manifestation in 15% of cases of SLE of pediatric onset, although it may take several years before the appearance of other manifestations of SLE. Between 20 and 30% of children with primary immune thrombopenia and serum positive ANA will subsequently develop SLE.
Keywords : Systemic lupus eythematosus; Thrombocytopenia; Primary immune thrombopenia.
