Abstract

We report a 38-year-old female patient with chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who occurred in rapidly calcified all of multiple intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) lesions. The patient was admitted with poor oral intake and confused mentality. Neurologic examination revealed drowsy consciousness but no motor weakness. She had been diagnosed ITP 5 years ago, however, she was not taking any medication at the time of presentation. Brain CT demonstrated that multiple ICHs, which were located in left frontal lobe, left temporal lobe and right cerebellar hemisphere. Platelet count was 10,000 cells/mm3. The patient was treated with conservative management, which included corticosteroids and platelet transfusion. Follow-up CT performed 12 days after the admission revealed that multiple ICHs were grossly resolving state. Interestingly, high attenuated lesions were seen all of multiple ICH sites, which were considered calcification. After 30 months after hemorrhage, follow-up brain CT showed prominent calcification of all of previous multiple ICH lesions. The patient was well- being state.
