Abstract
Background
Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, life-threatening condition triggered by pregnancy, often in the third trimester, and frequently mimics preeclampsia or HELLP syndrome due to shared features like thrombocytopenia. Refractory cases in twin pregnancies, described in this case, pose unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, requiring advanced interventions.
