What Is The Treatment For ITP And High Liver Enzymes?
My son was diagnosed with itp and after the liver enzymes are high doct ordered MRI was normal. He want do do biopsy. But the itp is controlled only once a year he gets treatment and last for a year . What is the best We are skeptical for biopsy and the hematologist dos not make a big deal what do you think
Hi and welcome to HCM Thanks for the query. Itp usually can be controled for many years and high liver enzymes can be seen occasionaly if there is significant hemolysis. if there is no critical fall in hemoglobin then no treatment is necessary. if there will be need,then splenectomy can be done and it will be final cure for itp. Wish you good health. Regards
