Izvleček		Izhodišča. Opisan je primer bolnika s trombotično trombocitopenično purpuro. Bolezen je prizadela vse organske sisteme, predvsem pa ledvici, pljuča in osrednje živčevje. Poleg razdihavanja (umetne ventilacije) in hemodialize smo bolnika zdravili z izmenjavo plazme, glukokortikoidi in prostaciklinom. Zaključki. Zdravljenje je bilo uspešno in bolnik normalno živi že tri mesece. Povzet je tudi kratek pregled literature o tej sicer redki bolezni in vrstah zdravljenja.
