Thrombocytopenia with acute ischemic stroke and bleeding in a patient newly vaccinated with an adenoviral vector-based COVID-19 vaccine: COMMENT: COMMENT from Gruel et al.: RESPONSE from Kahn et al
J Thromb Haemost. 2021 Jul 17. doi: 10.1111/jth.15467. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe acknowledge the commentary of Gruel et al. on our recent letter [1] and are pleased that the authors agree that IdeS may be a potential treatment option for the rare but potentially severe IgG-mediated platelet activation observed in complications to vaccination with ChAdOx1 nCoV-19. It is apparent that our respective but distinct expertise with regard to IdeS has led us to develop this hypothesis in parallel. As we clearly cited in our original letter these authors have previously contributed important evidence that IdeS may be benefic...

Thrombocytopenia with acute ischemic stroke and bleeding in a patient newly vaccinated with an adenoviral vector-based COVID-19 vaccine
We describe the first Danish case of presumed inflammatory and thrombotic response to vaccination with an adenoviral (ChAdOx1) vector based COVID-19 vaccine (AZD1222). The case describes a 60-year old woman, who was admitted with intractable abdominal pain seven days after receiving the vaccine. Computer Tomography (CT) of the abdomen revealed bilateral adrenal hemorrhages. On the following day she developed a massive right sided ischemic stroke and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) angiography showed occlusion of the right internal carotid artery. The ischemic area was deemed too large to offer reperfusion therapy. During ...
