Abstract
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) can follow a viral infection. We describe severe thrombocytopenia in two adult patients preceded by varicella zoster and Epstein-Barr virus infection, respectively. The differences between acute and chronic ITP are discussed, as well as therapeutic options.Entities:
