dc.description.abstractImmune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) which is a common, acquired and autoimmune disease is defined as low platelet count secondary to increased platelet destruction or impaired thrombopoiesis by anti-thromboycte antibodies. Pregnancy-associated thrombocytopenia accounts for 5% of all the cases. Thrombopoietin (TPO) mimetic drugs, such as Eltrombopag, have been used successfully in many patients with ITP; however data on its use in pregnancy is limited. In this report, a case who was followed up with ITP and given Eltrombopag during her pregnancy, cause it could not have been controlled by any other treatment is presented. Enoxaparin therapy was iniatiated for thromboprophylaxis after the patient’s platelet count responded to Eltrombopag treatment. Delivery was carried out by cesarean section. Baby was born with low birth weight and there was not any malformation. Nevertheless, further research is needed to find out whether there is a relationship between Eltrombopag use in pregnancy and low birth weight.
