Anemia is common in end-stage renal disease, but it resolves rapidly after transplantation due to normalization of kidney function. Acquired pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is an infrequent complication in kidney recipients. PRCA is a rare cause of profound

A Unique Constitutional Robertsonian Translocation t(13;14) Associated with Severe Aplastic Anaemia [PDF]
Aplastic anaemia is characterised by cytopenias and hypocellular bone marrow without any evidence of marrow fibrosis or marrow infiltration. There is no specific cytogenetic abnormality associated with aplastic anaemia.

Erythropoietin May Improve Anemia in Patients with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia Associated with Reticulocytopenia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Management of patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and reticulocytopenia remains challenging. CASE REPORTS: Two patients with decompensated AIHA who were receiving immunosuppressive drugs were treated with erythropoietin (EPO). Administration of EPO increased reticulocyte counts and hemoglobin concentrations in both cases.

A Rare Case of Parvovirus Infection Causing Pure Red Cell Aplasia in a Kidney-Pancreas Transplant Recipient. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Parvovirus B19 infection can rarely manifest with pure red cell aplasia in immunocompromised hosts. This case details a 48‐year‐old male, 11 years post kidney‐pancreas transplant who was admitted with a chronic normocytic anaemia (haemoglobin 72 g/L) after being admitted four months prior with a bleeding peptic ulcer, requiring eight units of ...

Acquired pure red cell aplasia: unraveling the immune pathogenesis
Acquired pure red cell aplasia (aPRCA) is a rare hematological disorder characterized by normochromic, normocytic anemia, reticulocytopenia, and the absence of erythroblasts. The pathogenesis of aPRCA has remained elusive.

A meta‐analysis of toxicities related to hydroxycarbamide dosing strategies
Due to fear of short‐term toxicities, there is nonconsensus of hydroxycarbamide dosing strategy (escalated vs fixed‐dosing methods), which contributes to its suboptimal use.

Delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction in children with sickle cell disease
Background Transfusion is a cornerstone of the management of sickle cell disease but carries a high risk of hemolytic transfusion reaction, probably because of differences in erythrocyte antigens between blood donors of European descent and patients of ...

Aggressive Systemic Mastocytosis in Association with Pure Red Cell Aplasia
Aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM) is characterized by mast cell accumulation in systemic organs. Though ASM may be associated with other hematological disorders, the association with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is rare and has not been reported ...
