Intracardiac Thrombosis in Sickle Cell Disease
In patients with sickle cell disease, thrombotic microangiopathy is a rare complication. Also in sickle cell disease, intracardiac thrombus formation without structural heart diseases or atrial arrhythmias is a rare phenomenon. We herein describe a 22-year-old woman, who was a known case of sickle cell-βthalassemia, had a history of recent missed abortion, and was admitted with a vaso-occlusive...
متن کاملSickle Cell Disease and Renal Disease
The kidney of patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) is affected by both haemodynamic changes of chronic anaemia and by the consequences of vaso-occlusion which are especially marked within the renal medulla. There are many abnormalities in renal structure and function as a result of these changes. Functional changes occur with increasing age in subjects with sickle cell disease. Proteinuria, ...

متن کاملRenal tubular dysfunction in sickle cell disease.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Kidney abnormalities are one of the main chronic complications of sickle cell disease (SCD). The aim of this study is to investigate the occurrence of renal tubular abnormalities among patients with SCD. METHODS This is a prospective study with 26 SCD adult patients in Brazil. Urinary acidification and concentration tests were performed using calcium chloride (CaCl2), after a ...
متن کاملRenal abnormalities in sickle cell disease.
Renal abnormalities in sickle cell disease. Sickle cell nephropathy is indicated by sickled erythrocytes, with the consequent effects of decreased medullary blood flow, ischemia, microinfarct and papillary necrosis. Impaired urinary concentrating ability, renal acidification, hematuria, and potassium secretion are also found. There may be a causal relationship between an increase in nitric oxid...
