Abstract
The first detailed comprehensive hypothesis for the pathophysiology of TTP is proposed which accounts for all of the features of TTP at several levels of reference: clinical, physiologic, biochemical, hematologic, and tissue pathology. From the proposed pathophysiology, by deduction, a number of novel diagnostic tests and several rational, promising therapeutic modalities.Keywords
