Leukostasis in Sézary Syndrome
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979To the Editor.— The occurrence of intravascular leukocyte thrombi and aggregates is well documented in both acute and chronic myelogenous leukemia, especially when the total WBC count is more than 50,000/cu mm. Leukostasis is an infrequent complication of lymphocytic leukemias, even with WBC counts of more than 200,000/cu mm.

Clinical Implications of Hyperleukocytosis/Leukostasis Syndrome
Journal of Modern Medical Oncology, 2023The unusual leukemia presentation known as hyperleukocytosis (white blood cell count >100×109/L) is linked to a higher risk of premature death. Leukostasis, a syndrome brought on by the sludging of circulating leukemic blasts in the microcirculation, is one of its secondary symptoms, which can take many different forms.

Leukostasis: Management to Prevent Crisis in Acute Leukemia
Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing, 2017Hyperleukocytosis, a peripheral white blood cell count greater than 100,000/mm3,is most commonly seen in patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia. Leukostasis is a reduction in blood flow related to hyperviscosity.

Interleukin-1-induced granulocytopenia and pulmonary leukostasis in rabbits
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1987Pulmonary leukostasis is a postulated prerequisite lesion for acute lung injury. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) mediates components of the acute-phase response, stimulates granulocyte metabolism and secretion, and augments endothelial adhesiveness. We studied the effects of murine IL-1 infusion on circulating granulocytes, their sequestration within the ...

Lung myeloperoxidase as a measure of pulmonary leukostasis in rabbits
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1985Pulmonary leukostasis can be associated with acute lung injury. We studied lung peroxidase activity using myeloperoxidase (MPO) as a granulocyte marker to quantitate pulmonary leukostasis in rabbits. Lungs were homogenized in detergent, freeze-thawed, sonified, and centrifuged, and supernatants were assayed for MPO.

Acute leukostasis pulmonary distress syndrome.
The Journal of family practice, 1992A 75-year-old woman in accelerated-phase chronic myeloid leukemia with hyperleukocytosis presented with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Despite early and aggressive pulmonary support and cytoreductive chemotherapy, the patient died. Autopsy confirmed the presence of the leukostasis syndrome.

[Therapeutic lymphapheresis in leukostasis-induced priapism].
Deutsche medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 1988Priapism occurred as a result of leukostasis due to an extreme rise in leukocyte count (503,000/microliter, 96% lymphocytes) in a 46-year-old man with chronic lymphatic leukaemia. In addition to surgical treatment, anticoagulant administration and cytostatic treatment several courses of lymphapheresis were performed using a cell separator.

Fatal Complement-Induced Leukostasis After Diatrizoate Injection
JAMA, 1983A case of fatal radiographic contrast medium (RCM)-induced pulmonary granulocyte aggregation (leukostasis) showed massive elevation of the postmortem histamine level. Suspicion of this phenomenon in diverse clinical settings permits clinical and pathological documentation via increased plasma levels of C3a and other means.

Targeting Leukostasis for the Treatment of Early Diabetic Retinopathy
Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders-Drug Targets, 2009Leukocyte-endothelial interaction plays an important role in the early phase of the development of diabetic retinopathy. It has been studied extensively linking inflammatory processes to its development conducted to date in rats and mice, and have focused on insulin-deficient models.
