Normocytic Anemia: Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA), Drug-Induced Hemolytic Anemia and Rh Disease
Hemolytic anemia is characterized by intravascular and extravascular destruction of erythrocytes. It manifests if the production of the erythrocytes in the bone marrow is slower than their degradation. A first good differentiation of the several forms of hemolytic anemia can be made between ‘hereditary’ and ‘acquired’. In this article, the most important forms of acquired hemolytic anemia are p...

متن کاملSuccessful Treatment of Refractory Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA) in a Child, Based on Iranian Traditional Medicine: A Case Report
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a heterogeneous and relatively unknown disease caused by premature immune destruction of red blood cells. While its occurrence is uncommon among children, it is sometimes severe and resistant to treatment. The warm-reactive type contains 70% to 80% of all cases, in which the first-line treatment is considered to be a steroid. Moreover, splenectomy, rituxima...
متن کاملThe Clinical Pictures of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is characterized by shortened red blood cell survival and a positive Coombs test. The responsible autoantibodies may be either warm reactive or cold reactive. The rate of hemolysis and the severity of the anemia may vary from mild to severe and life-threatening. Diagnosis is made in the laboratory by the findings of anemia, reticulocytosis, a positive Coombs test, an...
