Vaccine-induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a recently recognised syndrome observed in a small number of individuals who received the ChAdOx1 CoV-19 vaccine and was first identified in March 2021. The main features are thrombocytopenia and thrombosis within 5À30 days of adenoviral SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, with markedly elevated levels of D-dimer and presence of anti-PF4 antibodies. 1 In a paper published in the current issue of the journal, 2 authors from one of the groups that initially described the syndrome 3 report updated clinical and laboratory data on the German national cohort of VITT patients. 2The report links data from two sources to provide a comprehensive overview of a subgroup of the patients. The clinical details were obtained from the 106 cases of thrombosis and thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS) reported to the Paul-Ehrlich-Institute (PEI), the German Agency where adverse events are reported, following vaccination with the ChAdOx-1 nCoV-19 vaccine. 52 (49%) of the 106 TTS patients had their anti-PF4 testing at the Greifswald laboratory, an internationally centre of excellence for anti-PF4 research and testing. All 52 TTS patients tested for anti-PF4 using an IgG ELISA were positive, considered as confirmation of the diagnosis as VITT. The characteristics of the German TTS and VITT cohorts are similar to those reported with VITT from the UK 1 (Table 1). The relative higher proportion of female patients in Germany compared to the UK, reflects the fact that more females received the ChAdOx-1 nCoV-19 vaccine in Germany. 2
