Severe platelet dysfunction in hairy cell leukemia with improvement after splenectomy.
A patient with hairy cell leukemia developed purpura not attributable to thrombocytopenia. We found markedly reduced platelet aggregation responses and malondialdehyde production, decreased serotonin uptake, and depleted dense granule contents. Ultrastructural studies showed that most platelets had few or nor granules. All of the clinical and laboratory studies of platelet function and morpholo...
متن کاملAmyloidosis presenting as severe bleeding diathesis
Bleeding is one of the rare presentations of Amyloidosis. The mechanism behind spontaneous or periinterventional bleeding in patients of amyloidosis is complex and involves multiple co-existing factors like coagulation factor deficiency, abnormal synthesis of coagulation factors due to advanced liver dysfunction, acquired Von Willebrand disease, platelet dysfunction, amyloid angiopathy and othe...
متن کاملA case of Acquired Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura without Renal Dysfunction
Objective: Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is the most malignant variant of microangiopathy that usually presents by typical symptoms including thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, neurological abnormalities, fever and renal impairment. Report of the Case: We report a 12-year-old male presented by cytopenia, fever, purpura on his extremities, seizure and lethargy. Peripheral blood sm...
متن کاملHemostasis in renal failure
The association between bleeding diathesis and acute and chronic renal failure of different etiologies has long been recognized [8, 56]. The pathophysiology of the hemorrhagic tendency in this population is thought to be multifactorial and is attributable to abnormalities of primary hemostasis, in particular platelet dysfunction and impaired platelet/vessel wall interaction. The introduction of...
متن کاملBleeding Diathesis in Hemodialysis Patients
End-stage renal disease patients, particularly those treated with hemodialysis (HD), suffer from complex hemostatic disorders. Patients with uremia may experience two opposite he‐ mostatic complications: bleeding diathesis and thrombotic tendencies. Bleeding diathesis in uremic patients is primarily seen due to abnormalities in primary hemostasis, particularly platelet function disorder and imp...
