Aplastic Anemia
Aplastic anemia is a syndrome of bone marrow failure characterized by peripheral pancytopenia and marrow hypoplasia.
![Page 20: HEMATOLOGY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062809/56815570550346895dc33cb8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

2 .Dyskeratosis congenita 3 .Cartilage-hair hypoplasia
4 .Pearson syndrome B- Acquired causes (80%)

SYMPTOMSThe onset is insidious
Anemia may manifest as pallor, headache ,palpitations, dyspnea, fatigue, or foot swelling
Thrombocytopenia may result in mucosal and gingival bleeding or petechial rashes
Neutropenia may manifest as overt infections, recurrent infections, or mouth and pharyngeal ulcerations.
![Page 22: HEMATOLOGY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062809/56815570550346895dc33cb8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PHSICAL SIGNS *may show signs of anemia, such as pallor and
tachycardia, and signs of thrombocytopenia, such as petechiae, purpura, or ecchymoses. Overt signs
of infection are usually not apparent at diagnosis . *physical stigmata of inherited marrow-failure
syndromes, such as skin pigmentation, short stature, microcephaly, hypogonadism, mental
retardation, and skeletal anomalies . *The oral pharynx, hands, and nail beds should be
carefully examined for clues of dyskeratosis congenita. Oral leukoplakia in dyskeratosis congenita

Dx 1 .Complete Blood Cell Count and Peripheral Smears
A paucity of platelets, red blood cells (RBCs), granulocytes, monocytes, and reticulocytes is found in patients with aplastic anemia (PANCYTOPENIA). Mild macrocytosis is occasionally observed. The degree of cytopenia is useful in assessing the severity of aplastic anemia. The corrected reticulocyte count is uniformly low in aplastic anemia.
2 .Serologic testing for hepatitis and other viral entities, such as EBV, CMV, and HIV, may be useful.
3 .An autoimmune-disease evaluation for evidence of collagen-vascular disease may be performed
4 .The Ham test, or the sucrose hemolysis test CD55 and CD59 5 .Diepoxybutane incubation is performed to assess chromosomal
breakage for Fanconi anemia

Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy
*appear hypocellular devoid of active red marrow and replaced by fatty tissue
*marrow lymphocytes above 70% is correlated with poor prognosis
*Some dyserythropoiesis with megaloblastosis may be observed

TREATMENT1 -BMT – YOUNGER THAN 65 Y
2 -Diet – Exclude raw meat, dairy products, or fruits and vegetables that are likely to be colonized with bacteria, fungus, or molds
3 -Activity -- void any activity that increases the risk of trauma 4 -BLOOD TRANSFUSION SUPPORT
5 -Treatment of InfectionsEmpirical antibiotic therapy should be broad based, with gram-negative and staphylococcal coverage based on local microbial sensitivities. Especially consider including antipseudomonal coverage at the start of treatment for patients with febrile neutropenia, and consider early
introduction of antifungal agents for those with persistent fever .6 -Cytokines – in refractory infections

Immunosuppressive Therapy
antithymocyte globulin (ATG) has 2 origins, horse and rabbit Response to ATG is slow, and it usually takes 3-6 months for a
response to occur .cyclosporine-A (CSA)is being used as first-line therapy for patients older than 40 years and as second-line therapy in younger patients if a matched sibling donor
is not available
![Page 28: HEMATOLOGY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062809/56815570550346895dc33cb8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
alemtuzumab (monoclonal anti CD52 antibody) and daclizumab (anti-interleukin 2 receptor or CD-25 antibody). Mycophenolate mofetil and sirolimus were also used Methylprednisolone (Medrol, -Solu Medrol)
(Cyclophosphamide Cytoxan) Cyclophosphamide is chemically related to nitrogen mustards. As an alkylating agent, the mechanism of action of the active metabolites may involve cross-linking of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which may interfere with the
growth of normal and neoplastic cells .
![Page 29: HEMATOLOGY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062809/56815570550346895dc33cb8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Fludarabine (Fludara) This agent contains fludarabine phosphate, a fluorinated nucleotide analogue of the antiviral agent vidarabine, 9-b-D-arabinofuranosyladenine (ara-A) that enters the cell and is phosphorylated to form the active metabolite 2-fluoro-ara-ATP, which inhibits DNA synthesis. Fludarabine inhibits DNA polymerase, DNA primase, DNA ligase, and ribonucleotide reductase. This inhibits ribonucleic acid (RNA) function, RNA processing, and mRNA translation.
Fludarabine also activates apoptosis .

PrognosisThe outcome of patients with aplastic anemia has substantially improved because of improved supportive care. The natural history of aplastic anemia suggests that as many as one fifth of patients may spontaneously recover with supportive care; however, observational and/or supportive care therapy alone is rarely
indicated .The estimated 5-year survival rate for the typical patient receiving immunosuppression is 75%. The rate for those receiving a BMT from a matched sibling donor is greater than 90%. However, in cases of immunosuppression,
relapse and late clonal disease are risks .
