| 520 | |a Acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (AAMT) is a rare hematological disorder characterized by prolonged, severe thrombocytopenia, and reduced megakaryocytes on otherwise normal bone marrow biopsy. We report three cases of which two ultimately responded to treatment with eltrombopag, and one who one succumbed to illness despite treatment with multiple agents. These cases emphasize the difficulty of diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition. | ||
