72. non-neoplastic disorders of the hematopoietic system (anemia and polycythemia) Flashcards
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
types of anemia of diminished erythropoiesis (6)
Iron deficiency anemia Megaloblastic anemia Pernicious anemia Aplastic anemia Anemia of chronic disease Myelophthisic anemia
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of iron deficiency anemia (4)
dietary lack
blood loss (peptic ulcer, colon cancer, menorrhagia)
malabsorption
gastrectomy
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
Cellular appearance of iron deficiency anemia
microcytic anemia
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
syndrome related to iron deficiency anemia
Plummer-Vinson syndrome : esophageal web & atrophic glossitis with dysphagia
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of megaloblastic anemia (2)
folate deficiency
vitamin B12 deficiency
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
mechanism of folate & vitamin B12 deficiency
folate & vitamin B12 = DNA synthesis precursor
so deficiency cause impaired division and enlargement of RBC precursor (megaloblast)
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
morphology of megaloblastic anemia (5)
hypercellular bone marrow megaloblast (RBC precursor) giant metamyelocyte (granulocyte precursor) hypersegmented neutrophil large egg shaped RBC
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of folate deficiency (3)
poor diet
increased metabolic need (pregnancy, chronic hemolytic anemia patient)
malabsorption disorder
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of vitamin B12 deficiency (3)
pernicious anemia : autoimmune reaction against parietal cell and intrinsic factor
gastrectomy
strict vegan
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
clinical manifestation of pernicious anemia (2)
demyelinating disorder
increased risk of gastric carcinoma
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of aplastic anemia (4)
damage to hematopoietic stem cell
- drug
- chemicals
- viral infection
- autoimmune damage
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
consequence of hematopoietic stem cell damage (4)
aplastic anemia
thrombocytopenia
leukopenia
low reticulocyte count
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of anemia of chronic disease (3)
endocarditis
autoimmune disease
cancer
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
mechanism of anemia of chronic disease
production of acute phase reactant (hepcidin) : sequester iron in storage sites
72-1. Anemias of diminished erythropoiesis
cause of myelophthisic anemia
cancer metastasis to bone marrow
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
types of hemolytic anemia (6)
Hereditary spherocytosis Sickle cell anemia Thalassemia G6P dehydrogenase deficiency Immunolytic anemia Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
cause of hereditary spherocytosis
inherited defect of RBC cytoskeleton-membrane tethering protein
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
clinicals of hereditary spherocytosis (3)
splenomegaly (spherocyte consumed by splenic macrophage)
jaundice
increased risk of gallstone
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
cause of sickle cell anemia
AR mutation of beta chain of hemoglobin, cause sickle hemoglobin
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
pathomechanism of sickle cell anemia (2)
cells continuously sicke and de-sickle while pass microcirculation, cause membrane damage
- extravascular hemolysis : reticuloenothelial system remove damaged RBC
- intravascular hemolysis :
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
consequences of sickle cell anemia (4)
compensatory hyperplasia of erythroid progenitor in bone marrow : skull change
jaundice
hemosiderosis
bilirubin gallstone
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
complications of sickle cell aneima (6)
due to vaso-occlusion (sicke cell occlude blood vessel)
- Dactylitis : swollen hand and feet
- Autosplenectomy
- Acute chest syndrome
- Pain crisis
- Renal papillary necrosis
72-2. anemias related to increased loss of red blood cells
cause of thalassemia
inherited mutation, decreased synthesis of the globin chains of hemoglobin
