Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare blood disorder. Your immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, cell fragments that help your blood clot after an injury. The lack of platelets can make you bruise or bleed more easily. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is an older name for this condition...
