Two Date days Date later Date , he developed hematochezia Sign_symptom , hematuria Sign_symptom , and purpura Sign_symptom , and required transfusion Therapeutic_procedure of fresh Medication - frozen Medication plasma Medication and platelets Medication in another Nonbiological_location local Nonbiological_location hospital Nonbiological_location .
Four Date days Date later Date ( November Date 18, Date 2015 Date ), he was transferred Clinical_event to the West Nonbiological_location China Nonbiological_location Hospital Nonbiological_location due to the ineffective Qualitative_concept treatment Therapeutic_procedure .

Acid Diagnostic_procedure fast Diagnostic_procedure stain Diagnostic_procedure test Diagnostic_procedure of a sputum Detailed_description smear Detailed_description was negative Lab_value .
Chest Biological_structure computed Diagnostic_procedure tomography Diagnostic_procedure ( CT Diagnostic_procedure ) on admission Clinical_event ( November Date 18, Date 2015 Date ) (Fig.1) showed infiltrates Sign_symptom on the upper Biological_structure lobe Biological_structure of Biological_structure the Biological_structure left Biological_structure lung Biological_structure , left Detailed_description pleural Disease_disorder effusion Disease_disorder , and pericardial Disease_disorder effusion Disease_disorder , accompanied by enlargement Sign_symptom of mediastinal Biological_structure lymph Biological_structure nodes Biological_structure .
Abdominal Biological_structure ultrasound Diagnostic_procedure showed a small Qualitative_concept amount Qualitative_concept of fluid Sign_symptom adjacent to the liver Biological_structure and spleen Biological_structure .
Serologic Diagnostic_procedure markers Diagnostic_procedure were negative Lab_value for acute Detailed_description or chronic Detailed_description viral Disease_disorder hepatitis Disease_disorder , HIV Disease_disorder , direct Diagnostic_procedure Coomb Diagnostic_procedure test Diagnostic_procedure , and autoimmune Disease_disorder hepatitis Disease_disorder .
Peripheral Detailed_description blood Detailed_description film Diagnostic_procedure and Diagnostic_procedure culture Diagnostic_procedure were negative Lab_value .
Bone Detailed_description marrow Detailed_description smear Diagnostic_procedure and Diagnostic_procedure medulloculture Diagnostic_procedure were also negative Lab_value .
The antituberculosis Medication drugs Medication were discontinued immediately after admission Clinical_event .
Besides fasting Therapeutic_procedure , he was initiated with infusion Administration of fresh Detailed_description - frozen Detailed_description plasma Medication , platelet Medication , packed Medication red Medication blood Medication cells Medication , intravenous Administration immune Medication globulin Medication , recombinant Detailed_description human Medication thrombopoietin Medication , omeprazole Medication , and polyene Medication phosphatidylcholine Medication as well as nutrition Therapeutic_procedure supportive Therapeutic_procedure treatment Therapeutic_procedure .
Five Date days Date after Date fasting Therapeutic_procedure ( November Date 23, Date 2015 Date ), the patient started a therapy consisting of EMB Medication , moxifloxacin Medication , and amikacin Medication , while he had no further active hemorrhage Sign_symptom .
Eight Date days Date after Date admission Clinical_event ( November Date 26, Date 2015 Date ), the platelet Diagnostic_procedure counts had risen Lab_value gradually.
INH Medication ( 200 Dosage mg/d Dosage , intravenously Administration guttae Administration ) was administered on 24 Date days Date after Date admission Clinical_event ( December Date 11, Date 2015 Date ), while his liver Diagnostic_procedure function Diagnostic_procedure tests Diagnostic_procedure and platelet Diagnostic_procedure counts returned to normal Lab_value .
The main laboratory Diagnostic_procedure features Diagnostic_procedure are summarized in Table 1.
One Date month Date later Date ( December Date 17, Date 2015 Date ), reviewed chest Biological_structure CT Diagnostic_procedure (Fig.1) indicated the infiltration Sign_symptom , hydrothorax Sign_symptom , and pericardial Disease_disorder effusion Disease_disorder were absorbed well.
Almost about Date 4 Date weeks Date after Date admission Clinical_event , the patient recovered Outcome and left Clinical_event hospital Clinical_event with INH Medication ( 300 Dosage mg/d Dosage ), EMB Medication ( 750 Dosage mg/d Dosage ), levofloxacin Medication ( 500 Dosage mg/d Dosage ), and streptomycin Medication ( 750,000 Dosage U/d Dosage , intramuscular Administration injection Administration ).
There was no recurrence of DIC Disease_disorder or hemorrhage Sign_symptom during 8 Duration months Duration of follow Clinical_event - up Clinical_event .
Unfortunately, the patient refused a follow-up chest Biological_structure CT Diagnostic_procedure after his discharge Clinical_event .
Table ​2 shows the timeline of this case.
