Clinical guidelines Investigation of patients with polycythaemia
Polycythaemia may complicate or be the presenting feature ofa wide variety of different pathologies. Early diagnosis and treatment of primary polycythaemia will significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with this condition. Patients with a raised packed cell volume are divided into those with a raised red cell mass (absolute polycythaemia), and those with a red cell mass withi...
متن کاملErythroid colony growth from peripheral blood and bone marrow in polycythaemia.
Erythroid colony growth in the presence and absence of erythropoietin was compared in 23 patients with primary proliferative polycythaemia (PPP), nine with idiopathic erythrocytosis, 10 with secondary polycythaemia, 15 with pseudopolycythaemia and in 76 normal subjects. Erythroid colonies growing without erythropoietin stimulation (endogenous erythroid colonies) from peripheral blood (BFU-E) we...
متن کاملMedullary nephrocalcinosis, distal renal tubular acidosis and polycythaemia in a patient with nephrotic syndrome
BACKGROUND Medullary nephrocalcinosis and distal renal tubular acidosis are closely associated and each can lead to the other. These clinical entities are rare in patients with nephrotic syndrome and polycythaemia is an unusual finding in such patients. We describe the presence of medullary nephrocalcinosis, distal renal tubular acidosis and polycythaemia in a patient with nephrotic syndrome du...
متن کاملSimultaneous occurrence of multiple aetiologies of polycythaemia: renal cell carcinoma, sleep apnoea syndrome, and relative polycythaemia in a smoker with masked polycythaemia rubra vera.
A 58 year old male heavy smoker presented with intracranial haemorrhage and erythrocytosis. Four aetiologies of polycythaemia--polycythaemia rubra vera (PRV), renal cell carcinoma, sleep apnoea syndrome, and relative polycythaemia--were found to be associated with the underlying causes of erythrocytosis. He did not fulfill the diagnostic criteria for PRV at initial presentation, but an erythrop...
متن کاملAn elevated venous haemoglobin concentration cannot be used as a surrogate marker for absolute erythrocytosis: a study of patients with polycythaemia vera and apparent polycythaemia.
The diagnosis of polycythaemia vera (PV) has been established upon sets of clinical criteria, which require the presence of absolute erythrocytosis (AE). The most recent clinical criteria for PV, published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2001, also required AE, and stated that the measured red cell mass (RCM) could be replaced by a surrogate marker for AE; a haemoglobin (Hb) value of ...
