Resumen :
La púrpura trombótica trombocitopénica (PTT) es una microangiopatía trombótica grave producida por un déficit de la enzima ADAMTS13. Se denomina como PTT adquirida cuando este déficit es causado por autoanticuerpos anti-ADAMTS13. Ésta da lugar a una anemia hemolítica microangiopática, trombocitope...  Ver más
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a severe thrombotic microangiopathy caused by a deficiency of the ADAMTS13 enzyme. It is denominated acquired TTP when this deficiency is caused by anti-ADAMTS13 autoantibodies. This is characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and multiple organ failure of ischemic etiology, with a very high mortality rate if treatment is not initiated urgently. The standard treatment has been based for years on therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and immunosuppressive treatment with corticosteroids. In recent years, there have been great advances in the treatment of this pathology, with the development of new drugs. Among them stands out caplacizumab, a nanoantibody that inhibits the interaction between von Willebrand factor and platelets, reducing platelet aggregation. Different studies have shown a faster recovery in the level of platelets, a shorter duration of TPE, as well as a decrease in the variable composed of deaths, vascular events and exacerbations. This has allowed caplacizumab to be recently recommended as first-line treatment together with TPE and corticosteroids. Given that it is a drug whose use has recently spread to most hospital centers, real-life studies in hospitals in our environment are necessary. Specifically, the evaluation of the rate of exacerbations is proposed, together with other data, in patients treated with this drug and the standard treatment.
