A Case Of Anemia With Schistocytosis, Thrombocytopenia, And Acute Renal Failure Caused By Adenomyosis
INTERNAL MEDICINE(2011)
摘要
A 51-year-old woman with adenomyosis was admitted because of anemia with schistocytosis, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure (ARF). Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) was considered. Plasma exchange and steroid therapies improved laboratory results. However, renal biopsy specimen revealed acute tubular necrosis (ATN), but not TMA, and thrombocytopenia, diagnosed it as disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) but not TMA. Few cases of DIC associated with benign tumors of the uterus and, especially, adenomyosis have been reported. In adenomyosis patients, ARF is usually caused by obstructive uropathy. However, the rare case suggests that hemolytic anemia, DIC, and ARF due to ATN can occur in adenomyosis patients.
