“…Due to the evasive clinical differences between TTP and other kinds of secondary TMA in solid tumor patients, [ 2 ] we recommend the test for ADAMTS13 activity and the inhibitor level for the diagnosis of acquired TTP. Similar to our patient, an epiglottic squamous cell carcinoma patient was also diagnosed as TTP (confirmed by ADAMTS13 activity) before tumor treatment, [ 3 ] indicating the role of solid tumor instead of drugs or surgery, the two reported causes of TTP, [ 1 , 2 ] in the pathogenesis. The mechanism of tumor-associated TTP remains elusive.…”
