P Venkatesan1, V Patel, K E Collingham, C J Ellis.   

Abstract

The case of a 21-year-old male who presented with pneumonia associated with thrombocytopenia and bleeding and who died from intracranial haemorrhage is described. Very high titres of complement fixing and agglutinating anti-mycoplasma antibodies indicated recent Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Possible links between thrombocytopenia and M. pneumoniae infection are discussed.
