| ALT_DEFINITION |
Disorder characterized by abnormally low level of circulating platelets, usually with normal hemoglobin/red blood cell and white blood cell levels, and thought to be secondary to autoimmune destruction. A condition in which platelets (blood cells that cause blood clots to form) are destroyed by the immune system. The low platelet count causes easy bruising and bleeding, which may be seen as purple areas in the skin, mucous membranes, and outer linings of organs. |
