Abstract
The thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) are a group of diseases associated with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and end-organ dysfunction. These seemingly disparate entities share in common a pathogenic mechanism involving endothelial injury and thrombus formation. Prognosis and treatment depend on the nature of the underlying disease.Entities:
