INTRODUCTION
Immune Thrombocytopenia previously known as Immune Thrombocytopenic
Purpura is a hematologic disorder characterized by isolated
thrombocytopenia that may lead to excessive bruising and bleeding. ITP
could be either primary or secondary due to infection, drugs, previous
vaccination, primary hematologic disorders or immunodeficiencies
[3]. Approximately 2/3 of children with ITP have a history of a
preceding viral infection including hepatitis B/C viruses (HBV/HCV),
cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), varicella zoster virus
(VZV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), herpes simplex virus (HSV)
and influenza. The current case report aims to shed light and identify
severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as a
potential trigger of ITP in a toddler who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2
antibodies.
