Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, neurological and renal abnormalities fever1, with mortality rate, in the absence of treatment, almost 90%. Since such criteria do not distinguish TTP from uraemic syndrome (HUS), comprehensive term TTP-HUS more approriate2. The standard therapy urgent plasma exchange (PE)1, which reduces to 10% or less3–9. Because its dramatic effect on short long-term outcome,...
Jak inhibitors are potent anti-inflammatory drugs that have the potential to dampen hyperactive inflammatory response associated with severe COVID-19. We reviewed clinical outcomes of 218 patients COVID-19 hospitalized for pneumonia and treated ruxolitinib through a compassionate use program. Data on duration treatment; at 4, 7, 14, 28 days; oxygen support requirements; status; laboratory parameters were retrospectively collected. Overall, according physician evaluation, 66.5% showed...
T cell large granular lymphocytic (LGL) leukemia is a rare condition accounting for 2–3% of all mature lymphoid leukemias. Here, we present the case 73-year-old woman presenting with neutropenia and anemia (hemoglobin 9.9 g/dl). Hematological assessment revealed presence LGL leukemia. At time diagnosis, patient developed xerophthalmia xerostomia, diagnosis Sjögren’s syndrome was made following salivary gland biopsy. The finding lymphocytes in context autoimmune disorders well-known, though...
