  • Title: B19 parvovirus-induced anemia in a normal child. Initial bone marrow erythroid hyperplasia and response to intravenous immunoglobulin.
    Author: Murray JC, Gresik MV, Leger F, McClain KL.
    Journal: Am J Pediatr Hematol Oncol; 1993 Nov; 15(4):420-3. PubMed ID: 8214365.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: Human B19 parvovirus infection may cause severe erythroid hypoplasia in patients with an underlying hemolytic anemia. We report a case of severe parvovirus-induced anemia with initial marrow erythroid hyperplasia in a child with no underlying hematologic disorder. CONCLUSIONS: The patient's rapid hemoglobin recovery after treatment with i.v. immunoglobulin further supports this form of therapy for children with parvovirus-induced anemia.
