Successful treatment with recombinant thrombomodulin for B-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic syndrome complicated by disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Successful Treatment of Life-Threatening Cerebral Bleeding Associated with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Using Recombinant Human Soluble Thrombomodulin in a Patient with Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia with t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2); Bcr-Abl1

Recently, mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) with t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2); bcr-abl1 was described as one kind of acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage in the 2008 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues. However, treatment strategy remains difficult for this uncommon MPAL. In addition, this type of MPAL is at high risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TL...

Successful Treatment of Scrub Typhus - Associated

Scrub typhus is caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi. Any delay in diagnosis can result in delayed treatment and severe complications, including secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, which is rare but potentially fatal. In this paper, the authors present 3 cases of secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with scrub typhus, successfully treated with chloramphenicol without ad...

Short Communication Successful treatment of sepsis-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation in a patient with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura using recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin

Successful Control of Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation by Recombinant Thrombomodulin during Arsenic Trioxide Treatment in Relapsed Patient with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) frequently occurs in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). With the induction of therapy in APL using all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), DIC can be controlled in most cases as ATRA usually shows immediate improvement of the APL. However, arsenic trioxide (ATO) which has been used for the treatment of relapse in APL patients has shown to take...

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma associated with t(14;19)(q32;q13) translocation.

We report a 59-year-old man with intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) associated with hemophagocytic syndrome, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, and lung involvement. G-banding analysis of the metaphase spreads obtained from the bone marrow showed that the lymphoma cells were near-tetraploid and included two homologues of the 14q+ chromosome. Spectral karyotyping revealed that co...
