thrombocytopenia? (idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura)
|
a disease of the platelets resulting in a decrease in numbers
|
|
Thrombocytopenia?
|
idiopathic. oral manifestations include spontaneous gingival bleeding, ecchymoses, petechiae, or purpura; invasive procedures are contraindicated while platelet count is depressed
|
|
The cause of secondary thrombocytopenic purpura?
|
Due to drugs, chemicals or radiation
|
|
What is the cause of immune thrombocytopenic purpura?
|
Etiology is autoimmune.
|
|
The treatment for primary thrombocytopenia is?
|
Pt may undergo spontaneous remission or transfusion, steroids and spleenectomy.
|
|
The treatment of secondary thrombocytopenia?
|
To eliminate the etiology if possible, and like the primary the patient may undergo spontaneous remission, transfusion, steriods spleenectomy
|
|
The disorder looks the same as thrombocytopenia but the etiology is different
|

|
|
Nonthrombocytopenia purpura is caused by?
|
capillary fragility or a defect in the platelet function (ex. aspirin ingestion, nonsterioid anti-inflammatories, and autoimmune disease)
treatment is the same as for thrombocytopenia |

|
|
what are the oral manifestations of hemophilia?
|
spontaneous gingival bleeding, purpura, petechiae, ecchymoses, and epitaxis; invasive procedure such as prophylaxis is contraindicated until missing factor is replaced. Treatment; replace the missing factor
