Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a commonly seen acquired bleeding disorders. Particularly, the incidence is recently increasing along with cases detected incidentally. It has been reported in association with non-hematologic malignancies such as breast cancer with a limited number of case reports in the literature. Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare condition. Here we describe a newly diagnosed ITP resultant after therapy in a patient followed by adrenocortical carcinoma. Even the co-occurrence of these two conditions makes it quite considerable, we find worth sharing as our view about the possible pathophysiological mechanisms.
