Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare multisystem-affecting genetic disorder, and usually accompanied with autoimmune disorders such as immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Here, we report a 16-year-old patient with Kabuki syndrome with ITP and observe the therapeutic effect of TPO agonist hetrombopag olamine tablets. The duration of maintenance therapy and follow up were both 17 months. Whole exon sequencing (WES) of the patient’s peripheral blood showed c.5775_5778del (p. Leu1926LysfsTer120) heterozygous mutation in the KMT2D gene, which was not reported before.
