Figure 3From: Hypersensitivity reaction and acute immune-mediated thrombocytopenia from oxaliplatin: two case reports and a review of the literaturePlots displaying the trend of platelet counts. A. Patient one: the steep platelet decline occurring 24 hours after completion of oxaliplatin infusion, with concurrent bleeding diathesis. Two units of apheresis platelets were provided. B: Patient two: moderate decrease in platelet count without evidence of bleeding. Platelet drop was not as drastic as patient one due to discontinuation of the rest of oxaliplatin treatment.Back to article page
