Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), also known as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is thought to be due to autoimmune disease. An abnormal autoantibody (immunoglobulin G) binds to the platelet membrane, causing removal by the spleen. If left untreated it could lead to bleeding and possibly death (. Morey A. Blinder, M.D..
