- Purpura thrombasthenica (Glanzmann-Naegeli thrombasthenia) – genetic blood clotting disorder caused by a structural defect in the membrane of platelets (blood platelets).
- Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP; synonym: Moschcowitz syndrome) – acute onset of purpura with fever, renal insufficiency (kidney weakness; kidney failure), anemia (anemia), and transient neurological and mental disorders; occurrence largely sporadic, in the familial form autosomal dominant.
- Thrombocytopenia – reduction in the number of platelets.
- Consumption coagulopathy – consumption of clotting factors; occurs mainly in life-threatening diseases such as sepsis (blood poisoning).
