AbstractThe coexistence of anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is rarely encountered, and the clinical characteristics of this phenomenon are not well known.A 76-year-old Japanese woman with a history of idiopathic pulmonary disease was diagnosed with anti-GBM disease due to rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and a positive anti-GBM antibody test result. We treated the patient with hemodialysis, glucocorticoids, and plasmapheresis. During treatment, the patient suddenly became comatose. TMA was then diagnosed because of thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolyt...

Congenital Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Masquerading As Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (CTTP), also called Upshaw-Schulman syndrome (USS), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from the deficiency of the ADAMTS13. CTTP is characterized by the formation of platelet-rich thrombi in small vessels of multiple organs, resulting in thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, eventually leading to organ failure.

A case of infection-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
CONCLUSION: TTP is an acute severe disease with complex etiology, abrupt onset, and dangerous conditions. In this patient with TTP, an important cause of the disease may have been an acute gastrointestinal infection. The plasma examination in another hospital revealed positive results for ADAMTS13 inhibitors, providing strong evidence for the diagnosis of this case. Multiple plasma exchanges and glucocorticoids yielded favorable treatment results and were critical measures of successful treatment of TTP.PMID:37182863 | DOI:10.3233/CH-231784 (Source: Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation)

Better late than never: Diagnosis of recurrent atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome
We present a case of a 50-year-old female who received her first kidney transplant from her mother at the age of 9 years. She experienced recurrent losses of transplants, and only after the loss of her fourth transplant did the diagnosis of aHUS become evident.PMID:37114491 | DOI:10.5414/CN111047 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)

A multicenter evaluation of the Technoscreen ADAMTS13 activity semi-quantitative screening test for thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura diagnosis and exclusion
CONCLUSION: The Technoscreen assay appears to be a reliable screening test for ADAMTS13 activity to exclude TTP in routine clinical practice. However, the assay falsely identified ADAMTS13 deficiency in many cases, partially batch related, which mandates confirmation with a quantitative assay, as well as initial assessment of kits as 'fit for purpose' prior to use for patient testing.PMID:37078536 | DOI:10.1111/ijlh.14077 (Source: International Journal of Laboratory Hematology)
