Sist revidert av:


Definisjon:
Pancytopeni og hypocellulær beinmarg uten dysplasi. Sannsynligvis autoimmun årsak i majoriteten av tilfellene
Forekomst:
Sjelden. 2-5 tilfeller pr million pr år
Symptomer:
Avhengig av hvilken cellerekke som er mest påvirket. Dyspné, takykardi, residiverende infeksjoner
Funn:
Blekhet, petekkier. Fravær av hepatosplenomegali, lymfadenopati eller benømhet
Diagnostikk:
Hb, hvite m/differensialtelling, trc. Hemolyseparametre. Beinmargsbiopsi bekrefter diagnosen
Behandling:
Avhenger av alder og årsak. Støttende transfusjoner, immunosuppresiv behandling, beinmargstransplantasjon
