Drug-induced thrombotic microangiopathy: An updated review of causative drugs, pathophysiology, and management.

Drug-induced thrombotic microangiopathy (DITMA) represents 10%-13% of all thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) cases and about 20%-30% of secondary TMAs, just behind pregnancy-related and infection-related forms. Although the list of drugs potentially involved as causative for TMA are rapidly increasing, the scientific literature on DITMA is quite scarce (mostly as individual case reports or little case series), leading to poor knowledge of pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical management. In this review, we focused on these critical aspects regarding DITMA.
