Q

What is Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemia? Name and describe two conditions in which this occurs?

A

Small thrombi form in microvessles causing schistocytes. The thrombi formation causes thromboycytopenia.

HUS: Ecoli O157H7 endothelial toxin (shigalike toxin/ecoli verotoxin) exposing subenothelial collagen particularly occuring in renals.

TTP: def of ADAMSTS13–cannot cleave vWF multimer, thus getting microthrombi.

vWF is made in the weibel palade bodies of endothelial cells (WP bodes: W for vWf and P for P-selectins used in leukocyte extravasation.

Q

TTP vs HUS.

Causes, Mechanisms, Labs and Sxs.

A

TTP:

a) x ADAMSTS13 either congentially or usually autoimmune. b) Causing inabilty to cleave vWF penatmers, leading to microthrombic hemolytic anemia. c) Labs: Prolonged bleeding time with normal PT/PTT (just consuming platelets not factors (no activation of platelets. D) “CRAFT”: CNS, Renal, Anemia (schistocytes), Thrombocytopenia.

HUS:

Ecoli 0157H7 (EAEC). Usually from eating undercooked meat. Hemolytic anemia from Shiga-like toxin damaging endothelial cells (particularly in renals) causing exposure of subendothelial collagen leading to microthrombi. MORE RENAL INVOLVMENT. Don’t give antibiotics because you kill the normal gut flora first alleviating EAEC’s gut competition.

Q

Plasmin Overactivity Or def of Alpha 2 antiplasmin resembles___?

But you differentiate it with___.

A

Resembles DIC too much chewing up of clot AND prevention of clot formation (plasmin cleaves fibrin, fibrinogen, and inhibits platelet aggregation)

Thus resembles DIC however on labs you will see NO D-DIMERS cuz clots never have a chance to form.

Q

Labs for Anemia of Chronic DIsease vs Iron Def anemia

(also what’s the supposed mechanism of ACD?)

A

Il-6 causes release of acute phase reactants including Hepciden, which inhibits EPO and causes ferroportin internalization from basal membrane of enterocytes (and macros) thus preventing release of iron into blood.

Iron Def: Microcytic, decreased iron, ferritin, and % saturation with INCREASED TIBC,

ACD: Microcytic, HIGH FERRITIN, LOW TIBC, low iron (taken up by marrow just not replenished).
