Polycythemia Vera in a Cat

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1970
SUMMARY Clinical, laboratory, and pathologic findings in a case of polycythemia vera in a cat were recorded. Hematologic findings indicated marked polycythemia in the absence of a secondary cause. The red cell mass as measured directly by the 51Cr technique was markedly increased, whereas the plasma volume was normal.

The treatment of polycythemia vera

Journal of Chronic Diseases, 1957
p” LYCYTHEMIA vera is a chronic disease of unknown etiology, the chief clinical manifestations of which are headaches, fatigability, dizziness, pruritus, splenomegaly, plethora, cyanosis, and systolic hypertension. Elevations of the erythrocyte level, the hemoglobin concentration, and the hematocrit value constitute the most consistent laboratory ...

Chemotherapy in Polycythemia Vera

Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1968
Summary210 cases of polycythemia vera were observed over a period of 15 years. The majority of them received P32; treatment with Myleran instead of with radioactive phosphorus was instituted only recently. To a small number of patients chemotherapy was given alternately with P32.

The Hypercoagulability of Polycythemia Vera

Hospital Practice, 1993
Thrombosis is the most common cause of death in patients with this myeloproliferative syndrome. Phlebotomy, hydroxyurea, and antiplatelet agents are the mainstays of therapy but may not stave off a lethal embolism.

Polycythemia Vera: A Review

Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing, 2003
Polycythemia vera (PV) is a clonal stem cell disorder characterized by increased erythrocyte production. Its etiology is not fully understood, and hemorrhage, thrombosis, and hyperviscosity may occur at any time during the course of this disorder. Treatment depends on the most affected cell type, duration and severity of the condition, and patient age.

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA AND GLOMERULONEPHRITIS

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1983
Abstract: Six patients with polycythemia vera and proteinuria are described. Three patients had histologically defined glomerulonephritis. It is proposed that there is an association between polycythemia vera and the development of glomerulonephritis. Possible pathogenetic mechanisms are discussed.

Polycythemia Vera in Dogs

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1974
SUMMARY The historical and laboratory findings in 5 published reports and 3 additional cases of polycythemia vera in the dog were reviewed. The consistent abnormal findings included increased packed cell volume (pcv), hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell (rbc) count, rbc mass, and total blood volume.

Apoptosis and polycythemia vera

Current Opinion in Hematology, 1999
Polycythemia vera is an acquired clonal myeloproliferative disorder characterized by increased numbers of erythroid cells, often with a concomitant rise in neutrophils and/or megakaryocytes. Normally, erythropoietin is essential for the survival and proliferation of erythroid progenitors; however in polycythemia vera the erythroid progenitor cells can ...

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA IN CHILDHOOD

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1972
To the Editor.—The recent communication by Natelson et al1at the first glance appears to add another report to the compendium of chromosomal abnormalities, specific or nonspecific, as the case may be. The nonspecific chromosomal abnormalities probably are not significant since they may not have any relation to the clinical nature or etiology of the ...

Treatment of Polycythemia Vera

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2006
The selection of treatment for patients with polycythemia vera (PV) still is the subject of much discussion among hematologists. It is emphasized that important physiologic and pathogenic components of the illness relate not only to the erythroid cell, but also to the megakaryocyte.
