Platelets - Qualitative disorders are either?
|
acquired or congenital
|
|
Platelets - Qualitative disorders
Aquired |
1. drug induced--> by far the most important of the qual disorders
*aspirin exposed platelets do not adhere but they do aggregate 2. myeloproliferative disorders 3. Uremia |
|
Platelets - Qualitative disorders
Congenital |
1. Bernard Soulier's disease
2. Glansman's disease 3. Storage pool disease |
|
****What are the four "D's" of Quantitative Thrombocytopenia?
"The greatest thing since sliced bread" |
1. Decreased production
2. Dilution (massive transfusions for example) 3. Distribution (normal amounts of platelets but are [] somewhere) 4. Increased Destruction |
|
What are some examples of Decreased production leading to Thrombocytopenia?
|
aplastic anemia, congenital, drug induced, marrow infiltration, nutrional, post chemo/radiation, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, viral
|
|
Increased Destruction: Thrombocytopenia
|
-enough are produced but are being destroyed in the periph
-probably the most important of the Ds |
|
Thrombocytopenia:
Increased Destruction Examples |
-congential
-DIC -Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) -Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura -Post transfusion purpura -Thrombotic Thromocyt purpura |
|
Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)
|
-Ab against platelet surface Ag, destroyed by immune system
-tx w/ steroids |
|
****Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP)
|
Pentad of symptoms
-micro angioplastic hemolytic vascular problem--> the RBCs are being cut--> schistocytes |
|
****Thrombocytosis
Myeloproliferative disorders |
-chronic myelocytic leukemia
-Erythroblastic leukemia -hyper-eosinophilia syndrome -primary thrombocythemia -myelofibrosis w/ myeloid metaplasia -polycythemia vera--> premalig disease (too many of all cells) |
|
***WBC disorders 1
|
1. acute leukemia (neoplastic WBC in the marrow
2. Chronic leukemia 3. Lymphoma (neoplastic WBC in the lymph) 4. Myelodysplastic syndromes |
|
***Myeloid vs Lymphoid WBC disorders
|
1. Myeloid: from the BM
-includes precursors of granulos (neutros, basos, eosinos), monocytes, RBCs, Platelets 2. Lymph: nodes, thymus, spleen -includes lymphos from the periph blood, lymph nodes and extranodal tissues |
|
Acute vs Chronic WBC disorders
|
1. Acute: agressive clinical course (months), young malig cells predominate (blasts), "blastic"
2. Chronic:slow (years), mature malig cells predominate, "cytic" |
|
Overview of Myeloproliferative Disorders
|
-disease of adults
-stem cell disorder: myeloid cell line is part of malig clone -mature cells predominate -*periph blood shows inc plates in ALL MPD except fibrotic stage of myelofibrosis -BM shows hypercellularity |
|

|
|
Myeloproliferative Disorders involving:
Platelets and Megakaryocytes |
-Essential thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis
|
|
Myeloproliferative Disorders involving:

-Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia
|
|
Myelo-Dysplastic Syndromes - FAB classification
|
-myelodysplastic syndrome
-refract anemia (w/ ringed Sideroblast), (w/ excess blasts) -chronic myelomonocytic leukemia -refractory anemia w/ excess blasts in transformation |
|
***WBC disorders 2
|
1. myeloproliferative disorders
2. Plasma cell disorders 3. other WBC disorders |
|
****PLASMA CELL DISORDERS
|
-multiple myeloma
-LC disease, HC disease -Benign monoclonal gammopathy -Waldenstroms macroglobulinemia -Amyloidosis -Plasmacytoma -Plasma cell leukemia -Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance |
|
How to evaluate for coagulopathy?
|
-Hx and PE, but not enough
-CBC w/ smear -PT (prothrombin time) -INR (International normalized ratio) -PTT (partial thromboplastin time) -Platelet count |
|
Prothrombin Time (PT)
|
-extrinsic pathway:
factors II, V, VII, X and fibrinogen |
|
INR (International normalized ratio)
|
-ratio of pt's PT to a normal PT
|
|
PTT (partial thromboplastin time)
|
-factors VIII, IX, XI, XII and rarely Von Willebrand's factor
|
|
Congenital Coagulation Disorders
|
-Factor deficiencies (I-XII)
-Dys-fibrinogemia -Fletcher Trait -Fitzgerald Trait -Von Willebrand's Disease |
|
****Hypercoagulable states
|
-inherited defect of anti-clot enzymes
a. Protein C deficiency b. Protein S deficiency -HIT Ab |
|
Pentad of symptoms for TPP
|
1. Microangioplastic hemolytic anemia
2. Fever 3. Mental Status change 4. Renal dysfunction 5. Thrombocytopenia |
