Long-term responses and outcomes following immunosuppressive therapy in large granular lymphocyte leukemia-associated pure red cell aplasia: a Nationwide Cohort Study in Japan for the PRCA Collaborative Study Group.
Large granular lymphocyte leukemia-associated pure red cell aplasia accounts for a significant portion of secondary pure red cell aplasia cases. However, because of its rarity, long-term responses and relapse rates after immunosuppressive therapy are largely unknown. We conducted a nationwide survey in Japan and collected 185 evaluable patients. Fourteen patients with large granular lymphocyte ...
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 کاملTreatment of pure red-cell aplasia with cyclosporine in a renal transplant patient.
Acquired pure red-cell aplasia is a rare disorder that can be either idiopathic or associated with certain autoimmune diseases, pregnancy, lymphoproliferative disorders, nutritional deficiencies, or medicines. We present a deceased-donor renal transplant patient who developed pure red-cell aplasia associated with mycophenolate mofetil or tacrolimus and was treated with cyclosporine. A 20-year-o...
متن کاملPure red cell aplasia associated with autoimmune hepatitis successfully treated with cyclosporine A
A 47-year-old female with a 17-year history of autoimmune hepatitis had been treated with prednisolone, azathioprine, and ursodeoxycholic acid. Although her alanine aminotransferase level occasionally showed mild abnormality, the prednisolone dose could not be increased because she had developed cataract during the course of her illness. In May 2012, she developed severe normochromic normocytic...
متن کاملPure red cell aplasia associated with Good's syndrome accompanied by decreased stem cell factor production in the bone marrow.
A 79-year-old Japanese woman diagnosed with pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) associated with thymoma and hypogammaglobulinemia (Good's syndrome) was successfully treated with cyclosporine-A after a thymectomy. We further studied the etiology of this case. A burst-forming unit erythroid (BFU-E) assay with SCF restored erythropoiesis in vitro. SCF production was reduced in bone marrow stromal cells; ...
