Nonthrombocytopenic Idiopathic Purpura
๐Overview
Nonthrombocytopenic Idiopathic Purpura refers to a condition where purpura, or visible bleeding beneath the skin, occurs in the presence of a normal platelet count. This condition is often associated with vascular wall abnormalities, inflammatory processes such as vasculitis, or connective tissue disorders. Unlike thrombocytopenic purpura, the primary issue is not a lack of platelets but rather the integrity of the blood vessels or other systemic factors.
