Aplastic anemia complicating orthotopic liver transplantation for non-A, non-B hepatitis.
Aplastic anemia developed in 9 of 32 patients (28 percent) undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation for acute non-A, non-B hepatitis, at one to seven weeks after the procedure. No patient previously had evidence of hematologic dysfunction or conditions known to be associated with aplastic anemia. No other cases of aplastic anemia were identified among 1463 patients undergoing liver transplan...
متن کاملSuccessful allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in a 6.5-year-old male for severe aplastic anemia complicating orthotopic liver transplantation for fulminant non-A-non-B hepatitis.
We report the case of a 6.5-year-old male who received an unrelated orthotopic liver transplant for hepatic failure and encephalopathy following non-A-non-B hepatitis and subsequently developed severe aplastic anemia. For treatment of his aplastic anemia, he received a successful marrow transplant from his 9-year-old genotypically HLA-identical sister following conditioning with cyclophosphamid...
متن کاملAplastic Anemia after Non-a, Non-b, Non-c Hepatitis
O ver the past five years second generation assays for hepatitis C virus (HCV) have led to an improvement in its detection. Accordingly, descriptions of hepatitis C-associated aplastic anemia have been reported. However, cases of non-A, non-B, non-C hepatitis associated aplasia have been described recently. Such a fact suggests that a non-A, non-B, non-C agent might be implicated in many cases ...
متن کاملCatastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome complicating orthotopic liver transplantation.
Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS) is an acutely devastating situation characterized by widespread thrombotic microangiopathy in the presence of elevated titers of antiphospholipid antibodies. We describe a 57-year old woman who underwent liver transplantation for primary sclerosing cholangitis and developed this malignant variant of the antiphospholipid syndrome.
متن کاملALLOGENIC BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION IN APLASTIC ANEMIA
Eighteen patients, twelve men and six women, with aplastic anemia underwent allogenic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-matched siblings during the period of 1990 to 1996. The conditioning regimen was cyclophosphamide with or without busulfan, depending on the cause of aplasia. Antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) and cyclosporine were used for rejection and acute GVHD prophylaxis, respe...
