26
Hairy cell leukemia
adult males, mature b-cells. cells with hairlike projection. Marrow fibrosis= dry tap. Stains Trap: tartate-resitant acid phosphate TRAP-ped in Hairy situation treament: clabdribine, pentostatin
27
AML
65>, Auer rods, myoloperoxidase, cytoplasmic inclusions
28
CML

29
Heparin
activation of antithrombin which activates IIa and factor Xa, follow PTT
30
direct thrombin inhitors are? mech of action?
BAD, Bivalirudin, Argatroban, Dabigatran | inhitis thrombin
31
Thrombolytics
(tPA) Alteplase, streptokinase | direct and indtrect aid conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, increase in PT and PTT
32
ADP rectoptor inhibitores,
irri. blocks ADP receptor and prevent glycoprotein IIb/llIa on platelets Clopidogrel, ticagrelor
33
glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor
Abximab (monoclonal ab Fab fragment), binds glycoprotein IIb/IIIa on the activated platelets, preventing aggregation
34
thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
TTP:inhibition or deficiency of ADAMT13 (a vWF metalloprotease) increased platelet adhesion and aggregation------> microthrombi Presentation: triad -thrombocytopinia, microangiopathic hemolytic aneamia, acute kidney injury +fever and neurologic symptoms Labs: platelet count is low, schitocytes, normal PT/PTT
35
hemolytic uremic syndrome
HUS: commonly caused by shiga-like toxin from EHEC. atypical is caused by caused by complement gene mutation Presentation: triad -thrombocytopinia, microangiopathic hemolytic aneamia, acute kidney injury +bloody diarrhea Labs: platelet count is low, schitocytes, normal PT/PTT DIC
36
