Phagocytosis of Lymphocytes and Erythrocytes by B-Cell Lymphoma in a Patient With a Clinical Suspicion of Pure Red Cell Aplasia. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Herein, we report a diagnostically challenging case of a B‐cell lymphoma initially masquerading as pure red cell aplasia (PRCA). The key to diagnosis was the unique finding of phagocytic activity (engulfing erythrocytes and lymphocytes) by atypical mature lymphocytes in both peripheral blood and bone marrow, accompanied by clinical signs of ...

Pure Red Cell Aplasia Associated With Thymic Tumors, a Nationwide Retrospective Study. [PDF]

Am J Hematol
ABSTRACT Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is the most frequent autoimmune cytopenia associated with thymic tumors (TTs). In a nationwide retrospective study, we included 41 patients (22 women, median age 62 years). At PRCA diagnosis, the mean hemoglobin level was 6.6 ± 2.1 g/dL, and the reticulocyte count was 6 ± 5 × 109/L. PRCA was diagnosed before TT (8%,

Successful Treatment of Posttransplant Refractory Pure Red Cell Aplasia Following Parvovirus B19 Infection [PDF]

Case Rep Med
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA), a rare cause of anemia limited to the erythroid lineage, is characterized by normocytic normochromic anemia, severe reticulocytopenia, and markedly reduced or absent erythroid precursors in the bone marrow. We report a 44‐year‐old male with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) secondary to autosomal dominant polycystic kidney ...

Pure Red Cell Aplasia and Carcinoma [PDF]

Blood, 1971
Abstract A patient presented with pure red cell aplasia, which responded to corticosteroids. Thirteen months later, a malignant pleural effusion developed, with subsequent death from adenocarcinomatosis. The reports of cases in which pure red cell aplasia has been associated with carcinomata are reviewed.
