DIAGNOSTIC DILEMMA
A 6 years old boy presented with fever for 2 months and cough for 15 days. Hemogram showed platelets of 26,000/cu mm. CT chest was suggestive of tuberculosis. His HIV ELISA was negative. He was started on anti-tuberculous therapy (ATT). At end of 3 months, he developed atopic dermatitis with seborrheic dermatitis which responded to anti-histamines and emollients. He was suspected to have Wiskott Aldrich syndrome (WAS) but MPV was decreased and bone marrow showed increased megakaryocytes. His serum immunoglobulins were also normal. At end of 6 months, ATT was stopped but platelets were still low. He then had malena which required platelet transfusion.

Is this WAS or is it ITP?
