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 کاملErythrocytes in Sickle Cell Anemia
patients, we have studied the viscosimetric and hemodynamic characteristics of four major classes of hemoglobin SS erythrocytes. We have isolated reticulocytes, discocytes, dense discocytes, and irreversibly sickled cells (fractions I-IV) on Percoll-Renografin density gradients. Bulk viscosity was studied in a coneplate viscosimeter and the hemodynamic studies were performed on the isolated, ar...
متن کاملErythrocytes Experience with Promazine in Sickle Cell Disease
S 563 level and CNS abnormality was notable only at levels above 20 mg./100 ml. Half the children with peak bilirubin levels above 30 mg./100 ml. had brain damage, and the three cases of classical kernicterus ( athetosis, hearing loss and mental retardation ) were in this group. Among infants exposed to bilirubin concentrations between 20 and 29.9 mg./100 ml., 18 per cent had hearing loss and/o...
متن کاملHybrid erythrocytes for membrane studies in sickle cell disease.
A hybrid erythrocyte model for membrane studies in sickle cell disease has been developed. The model consists of normal red cell membranes containing hemoglobin S and sickle cell membranes containing hemoglobin A. In hybrids, complete hemoglobin exchange has been achieved together with restoration of low membrane permeability to potassium. Normal membranes containing HbS sickle upon deoxygenati...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Red Blood Cell Adhesion and Deformability in Sickle Cell Disease
We present a microfluidic approach that allows simultaneous interrogation of RBC properties in physiological flow conditions at a single cell level. With this method, we studied healthy hemoglobin A (HbA) and homozygous sickle hemoglobin (HbS) containing RBCs using whole blood samples from twelve subjects. We report that HbS-containing RBCs are heterogeneous in terms of adhesion and deformabili...
