Apheresis therapy for prolonged red cell aplasia after major ABO-mismatched bone marrow transplantation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two cases of leukemia were treated successfully with apheresis for delayed recovery of erythropoiesis due to antibody-mediated red cell aplasia after ABO-mismatched bone marrow transplantation (BMT). A 25-year-old female (ABO group O) underwent BMT from her brother (group A). Immunoadsorption using Biosynsorb A performed on day 146 after BMT followed by double filtration plasma pheresis (DFPP) reduced anti-A antibody titers from 1:32 to 1:2. Anemia improved dramatically within 2 weeks. A 49-year-old female (group O) underwent BMT from her mother (group A). She was treated with DFPP on day 131 after BMT. Anti-A antibody titers dropped from 1:16 to 1:1 and anemia improved gradually.

Rapid Recovery from Chronic PRCA by MSC Infusion in Patient after Major ABO-Mismatched alloSCT
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a rare complication in recipients of allogenic stem cell from ABO incompatible donors. It is characterized by reticulocytopenia and by an absence of red cell cell precursors in the bone marrow. Despite close isohemagglutinins monitoring and standard immunosupressive treatment in these patients prolong PRCA are still associated with severe transfusion dependence. ...
متن کاملErythrocyte repopulation after major ABO incompatible transplantation with lymphocyte-depleted bone marrow.
Forty-four out of 258 allogeneic BMT were performed across the major ABO barrier. Donor erythrocyte repopulation could be evaluated in 30 cases. Fifty-eight patients transplanted with an ABO compatible or minor incompatible graft served as the control group. All patients received a marrow graft depleted of lymphocytes by counterflow centrifugation. Less than 10(8) residual erythrocytes were pre...
متن کاملPure red cell aplasia of long duration complicating major ABO-incompatible bone marrow transplantation.
In 3 of 15 consecutive patients receiving a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical but major ABO incompatible bone marrow transplant (BMT), pure red cell aplasia (PRA) lasting 5 to 8 months was observed. Titers of the incompatible anti-A agglutinin before infusion of the red blood cell (RBC)-depleted BMT was very high in one, and in the usual range in two patients. Decrease of agglutinin titer...
متن کاملABO Incompatibility and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Outcomes
Introduction: The increased risk of hemolytic reactions and erythrocyte recovery delay in ABO incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are well established. Effects of ABO incompatibility on other transplantation outcomes are evaluated in this study. Subjects and Methods: We prospectively followed 501 patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation regarding their AB...
متن کاملABO-Mismatched Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative option for a variety of malignant and non-malignant hematological and congenital diseases. Due to the fact that the human leukocyte antigen system is inherited independently of the blood group system, approximately 40-50% of all HSCTs are performed across the ABO blood group barrier. The expected immune-hematological conseq...
