Thrombotic microangiopathy with pulmonary hemorrhage: A rare case report.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) includes various diseases with different etiologies which ultimately results in endothelial damage to the small vasculature leading to thrombosis in the micro vessels, this causes mechanical hemolysis, thrombocytopenia due to platelet consumption and ischemic organ damage. Untreated cases carry high mortality, so identifying the cause for TMA assumes importance. We report a 47-year old hypertensive lady presenting with accelerated hypertension (HTN) and TMA picture with rapidly progressive renal failure.
