Frequency and utility of bone marrow examination in relapsed/refractory immune thrombocytopenia
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is one of exclusion. Although guidelines recommend against routine bone marrow examination (BME) at time of ITP diagnosis, the role of BME in relapsed/refractory ITP is unclear.
OBJECTIVES: To examine the frequency and predictors of BME in relapsed/refractory ITP.
