Title: [Autoimmune hemolytic anemia and chronic giant cell hepatitis]. Author: Bodova I, Horakova J, Lukac J, Cupanikova D, Plank L. Journal: Bratisl Lek Listy; 2000; 101(1):54-6. PubMed ID: 10824415. Abstract: The authors describe a case report of a six months old boy with autoimmune hemolytic anemia and giant cell hepatitis. This is a very rare syndrome in infancy. After eleven months of intensive immunosuppressive treatment (glucocorticoids, cyclosporin A, azathioprin, intravenous immunoglobulins, cyclophosphamid) no improvement of hemolysis was observed and therefore splenectomy was indicated. 1 year after the treatment was finished the patient is in good general condition and his hematologic and biochemical parameters are physiological.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
