    مستخلص: BACKGROUND: Untreated microangiopathic hemolytic anemia in pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes. Accurate diagnosis is challenging owing to nonspecific clinical features and pathologic findings. Timely initiation of appropriate management is essential to optimize maternal and perinatal outcomes. CASE: A 26-year-old primiparous woman presented at 20 weeks of gestation with new-onset microangiopathic hemolytic anemia on a background of poorly controlled type 1 diabetes. She received eculizumab for presumed atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome. At 24 weeks of gestation, she developed superimposed early-onset preeclampsia; she delivered at 27 weeks of gestation after continuing eculizumab. CONCLUSION(S): Eculizumab may prolong pregnancy in early-onset preeclampsia. Additional research is needed to assess short-term and long-term maternal and newborn outcomes.Copyright © 2019 by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

    مستخلص: Aims: To describe the baseline characteristics and treatment of Australian patients diagnosed with atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) reported to the Global aHUS Registry. Method(s): Descriptive analysis of the Australian cohort with aHUS (n = 106) was undertaken for demographics, disease characteristics and prior treatment with eculizumab; comparing with the global cohort (n = 1688) for certain pre-specified disease characteristics. Result(s): In Australia, almost two-thirds of patients diagnosed with aHUS were female and over 80% of patients were Caucasians, with similar proportions reported in the global cohort. Less than 6% of patients in the Australia and global cohorts were reported to have a history of autoimmune disease (4% vs 2%, respectively; P =.21) or cancer (5% vs 5%, respectively; P =.93), conditions that have been associated with secondary HUS. In the Australian cohort, 26% had received a kidney transplant and 68% of patients had received eculizumab. Kidneys were the most common organ involvement, followed by gastrointestinal tract (26%) and cardiovascular system (19%), with 35% of patients reported to have had at least two organs involved within 6 months prior to baseline visit or entry into the registry. Complement factor H was the most common pathogenic complement gene variant in the Australian patients. Conclusion(s): Data from the aHUS registry confirms and defines region-specific disease characteristics among a selected group of Australian children and adults with aHUS reported to the registry. Ongoing and more inclusive data will provide further information about temporal trends and treatment outcomes, representing a unique opportunity for clinicians and researchers to further develop knowledge surrounding this rare disease.Copyright © 2020 Asian Pacific Society of Nephrology

    مستخلص: A 25-year-old man presented with microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia and acute kidney injury. With a normal ADAMTS-13 level, negative faecal shiga-toxin test and strong family history of atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome, he was commenced on eculizumab to good clinical response. Subsequent genetic testing revealed a heterozygous complement factor H mutation. Eculizumab was discontinued after 44 months of treatment, and he relapsed within 6 months, with the first sign being downtrending haptoglobin levels, with no other markers of haemolysis or thrombocytopaenia, 5 weeks prior to development of acute kidney injury. He was recommenced on eculizumab and to date still remains on it. This case highlights the unusual pattern of relapse and discusses the considerations for eculizumab discontinuation in patients with stable atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome receiving maintenance therapy.Copyright © 2017 Asian Pacific Society of Nephrology

    مستخلص: Background/Aim: This study aimed to report the clinical characteristics and outcomes of Australian patients treated with eculizumab for atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS). Method(s): A retrospective cohort study was undertaken of all patients in Australia treated with eculizumab provided in a compassionate access programme for a clinical diagnosis of aHUS using prospectively collected clinical data. Result(s): A total of 10 patients with a median age of 23.5 years (interquartile range (IQR) 24.83 years) received compassionate access eculizumab for aHUS in Australia. Eight patients were female, and three had a family history of aHUS. Three received eculizumab for an initial acute aHUS presentation, three for relapsing and refractory acute aHUS, two for de novo aHUS post-renal transplantation, and one each for aHUS recurrence post-transplantation and facilitation of transplantation with a history of aHUS. The median duration of eculizumab therapy has been 911.5 days (IQR 569 days) with a cumulative exposure of 9184 days. At baseline all patients had renal and extra-renal aHUS involvement, with up to three non-renal organs affected. All but one patient, who died from uncontrollable gastrointestinal aHUS manifestations, have continued. The nine continuing patients achieved remission of aHUS. Two of the four patients requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) at eculizumab commencement subsequently ceased RRT. Clinical events occurring in this cohort while on eculizumab treatment included neutropenia (two), posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (one), cardiomyopathy (one), pulmonary embolus (one), antibody-mediated rejection resulting in renal graft failure (one), iron deficiency (one), gastrointestinal haemorrhage (one) and death (one). Conclusion(s): Eculizumab has been an effective therapy for aHUS in this cohort, including when other therapies have failed.Copyright © 2015 Royal Australasian College of Physicians.

    مستخلص: Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a very rare, life-threatening, progressive disease that frequently has a genetic component and in most cases is triggered by an uncontrolled activation of the complement system. Successful treatment of aHUS with plasma infusions and therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is well reported. TPE has been the treatment of choice in most adult patients with aHUS. However, due to severe hemolysis, which is common among aHUS patients, there are some technical challenges that can affect TPE treatment such as the continuous activation of the blood leak alarm due to hemolysis. Our experience shows that such patients can be managed better on a centrifuge based TPE machine compared to a membrane based TPE machine. © 2013 Zimbudzi.
