Overview
There are two broad mechanisms for the causes of thrombocytopenia: Reduced platelet production and increased platelet destruction. Thrombocytopenia is seen in a variety of infectious and genetic disorders as well as a side effect of a large list of medications.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
Common Causes
- Abruptio placentae[1]
- Bone marrow suppression (chemotherapy, irradiation)
- Cardica bypass[1]
- Chronic alcohol use
- Chronic liver disease[2]
- Common variable immunodeficiency[1]
- Congenital thrombocytopenia
- Connective tissue disorders (eg SLE, RA, antiphospholipid syndrome)[1]
- Disseminated intravascular coagulation[2]
- GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor[1]
- Hemolytic uremic syndrome
- Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
- Immune thrombocytopenic purpura[3]
- Infections[2]
- Macrophage-activation syndrome[1]
- Medications[2]
- Preeclampsia
- Pregnancy[4]
- Pseudothrombocytopenia
- Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura[5]
Causes by Organ System
Causes in Alphabetical Order
Decreased production
Vitamin deficiencies
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- Folic acid deficiency
- Iron deficiency

- Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
- Chronic myeloid leukaemia
- Hairy cell leukaemia
- Myeloma
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma
- Myelodysplastic syndrome
- Myelofibrosis
Reduced thrombopoiesis due to reduced thrombopoietin production
- Decreased production of thrombopoietin by the liver in liver failure.
Infectious etiologies
- Sepsis, systemic viral or bacterial infection
- Dengue fever can cause thrombocytopenia by direct infection of bone marrow megakaryocytes as well as immunological shortened platelet survival

X-linked inherited conditions
- GATA1-related cytopenia
- Immunodysregulation polyendocrinopathy and enteropathy, X-linked
- Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome
- X-linked hyperimmunoglobulin M syndrome
- Mitochondrial genome inherited conditions
- MELAS
Chemical exposure
- Strontium-89
- Zinc
Increased destruction
Hematologic Disorders
- Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)
- Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP)
- Hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS)
- Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
- Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH)
- Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAITP)
- Following transfusion or post transfusion alloimmune thrombocytopenia
- Evans syndrome
- Macrophage activation syndrome
Cardiovascular causes
- Cholesterol embolism
- Intraaortic balloon pump placement
- Endocarditis
Obstetric disorders
Autoimmunde Disorders
Infectious Disorders
- Dengue fever has been shown to cause shortened platelet survival and immunological platelet destruction
- HIV [3]
Other disorders
- Splenic sequestration of platelets due to hypersplenism
Medication-induced
Thrombocytopenia associated with medications can be due to either a reduction in production of platelets or increased destruction.
List of potential etiologies:
Sulphonamides Drugs, hormones and mediators Aclarubicin Anazolene Antithymocyte globulin Arsenic trioxide
|
Guanidinium Haem arginate Methyldopate
|
Para-amino salicylic acid Sulphasalazine Sunitinib malate |
Epiphenomenon
Kasabach-Merritt syndrome Paraneoplastic syndrome
