摘要：
We describe a case of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) resistant to conventional therapy with fresh-frozen plasma (FFP)-plasma exchange (PEX) as well as to steroids, immunoglobulins, vincristine, dipyridamole, dextran and iloprost, achieving complete remission with cryosupernatant-plasma exchange. Our case shows the effectiveness of cryosupernatant PEX, when FFP-PEX and alternative therapies have failed.
