Repeated Response to Daratumumab in Refractory MGUS-Associated Pure Red Cell Aplasia Persisting After Allogeneic Transplantation: A Case Report. [PDF]

EJHaem
ABSTRACT Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is usually managed as a disorder driven predominantly by cellular immune mechanisms, but plasma cell‐directed therapy may be relevant in selected cases associated with monoclonal gammopathy. We report a case of refractory PRCA associated with IgG‐kappa monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). A 64‐

H Syndrome Associated With Pure Red Cell Aplasia, Rosai-Dorfman Disease, and Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Phenotypic Variability in Three Children With the Same SLC29A3 Mutation. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT H syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SLC29A3 gene. We report three pediatric patients with a homozygous c.1309G>A (p.Gly437Arg) mutation presenting with distinct phenotypic variations. These cases expand the clinical spectrum and emphasize the importance of early genetic diagnosis and family counseling.
