Isoniazid-induced Pure Red Cell Aplasia in a Patient with Sarcoidosis: A Patient Summary and Review of the Literature
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 41-year-old woman treated with isoniazid (INH) for latent tuberculosis infection and an oral corticosteroid for sarcoidosis developed severe anemia two months after initiating INH. A bone marrow examination showed erythroblastopenia, and a diagnosis of INH-induced pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) was made. Her reticulocyte count and hemoglobin levels improved two weeks after discontinuation of INH. A literature review of INH-induced PRCA shows that it occurs very rarely in the context of autoimmune disorders. This report describes a case of INH-induced PRCA occurring in a patient with sarcoidosis.

Linezolid Induced Twice Pure Red Cell Aplasia in a Patient with Central Nervous System Infection after Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
Linezolid (LZD), severed as the first oxazolidinone antibiotic, was active against multidrug-resistant gram-positive strains. LZD can induce thrombocytopenia, anemia and leukocytopenia. Currently, reports on pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) cases induced by LZD are relatively rare [4-7]. In this paper, we reported a patient with PRCA twice induced by LZD. A 37-year-old man was diagnosed with myelody...

متن کاملThymoma with pancytopenia: a case report and review of the literature
Although the most common hematological disturbance in thymoma is pure red cell aplasia, pancytopenia is a very rare paraneoplastic syndrome in this disorder. We only found one case in literature reviews. We report a 36 year old female with an anterior mediastinal mass and severe pancytopenia. With a mediastinotomy incision, biopsy of the tumor was obtained. The report of the pathologist was t...
متن کاملPure Red Cell Aplasia Caused by Acute Hepatitis A
Pure red cell aplasia is characterized as a normocytic anemia associated with reticulocytopenia and the absence of erythroblasts in the bone marrow. Pure red cell aplasia can be induced by various causes such as thymoma, connective tissue disease, viral infection, lymphoma, and adverse drug reactions. There have been only a few reports of pure red cell aplasia associated with acute viral hepati...
