what do you give to pt with active bleed who needs rapid surgical intervention?
fresh frozen plasma –> reverses INR bc it has all the coagulation factors

defect in eryhtropoesis –> pure red cell aplasia
erythroblasts in bone marrow undergo premature apoptosis
sx of diamond Blackfan anemia
anemia
webbed neck
cleft pallet
triphalangeal thumb

pathophysiology of hereditary spherocytosis
AD
defect in ankyrin/spectrin –> RBC cytoskeleton defects
sx of hereditary spherocytosis
splenomegaly
increased bilirubin –> jaundice, dark urine
lab findings of hereditary spherocytosis
normocytic anemia inc Lactate dehydrogenase inc reticulocytes dec haptoglobin inc RDW inc MCHC spherocytes, howell-jolly bodies
dx of hereditary spherocytosis
osmotic fragility test
dec mean fluorescence in osin 5- maleimide binding
pathophysiology systemic mastocytosis
mutations in KIT–> mast cell proliferation and increased expression of mast cell trypase
increased mast cell degranulation –> increase in histamine–> gastric ulceration
sx of systemic mastocytosis
pruritus Dariers sign: rash or itching when stroke skin. gastric ulcers hypotension and syncope itching after hot shower
