Pure red cell anaemia coincident with benign thymoma.
Pure red cell agenesis in adults was first described by Kaznelson (1922). Since then the condition has been seen with and without coincident thymic tumour, and by March, 1958, 14 cases of the tumour-anaemia syndrome had been reported (Davidsohn, 1941; Humphreys and Southworth, 1945; Chediak, Fuste, and Rosales, 1953; Ross, Finch, Street, and Strieder, 1954; Chalmers and Boheimer, 1954; Bakker, ...
متن کاملPure red cell aplasia and associated thymoma
Pure red cell aplasia is a rare cause of anemia, caused by an absence of red blood cell precursors in the bone marrow. It is usually a paraneoplastic syndrome, associated most commonly with large-cell granular lymphocyte leukemia but also thymoma. For patients who present both pure red cell aplasia and thymoma, thymectomy leads to an initial remission of the aplasia in 30% of cases. However, su...
متن کاملInvasive Thymoma with Pure Red Cell Aplasia and Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia
We here describe a case involving a 67-yearold female patient who was referred to our hospital due to severe anemia (hemoglobin, 5.0 g/dL), thrombocytopenia (platelet count, 0.6 × 104/μL), and a mediastinal shadow with calcification noted on X-ray. On admission, an anterior mediastinal tumor was detected, and bone marrow biopsy revealed few megakaryocytes and severely reduced numbers of erythro...
متن کاملThymoma associated with hypogammaglobulinaemia and pure red cell aplasia
Thymomas are neoplasias that begin in the thymus and develop in the anterior mediastinum. They are commonly associated with a variety of systemic and autoimmune disorders, such as pure red cell aplasia, hypogammaglobulinaemia, pancytopaenia, collagen diseases, and, most commonly, myasthenia gravis. The presence of inter-current infections, especially diarrhoea and pneumonia, in the presence of ...
متن کاملExperience with surgery for thymoma associated with pure red blood cell aplasia. Report of three cases.
We present three cases of thymoma associated with pure red blood cell aplasia in which thymomectomy and thymectomy were performed. Case 1, a patient with pure red blood cell aplasia and hypogammaglobulinemia, was treated after surgery with immunosuppressive agents. She did not show any remission and died eight months after the operation. Case 2, a patient with pure red blood cell aplasia alone,...
