A case of generalized lymphadenopathy with severe thrombocytopenia and marked polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia is reported. A 51-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of nasal bleeding and generalized lymphadenopathy. Laboratory examination revealed a platelet count of
A 56-year-old Japanese man developed a cerebral hemorrhage and was diagnosed with plasma cell-type multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD) based on the findings of an inguinal lymph node biopsy in addition to clinical findings, including hypergammaglobulinemia, anemia and elevation of the levels of
A 55-year-old man with a chief complaint of melena had diffusely infiltrated lymphoma from the rectum to the sigmoid colon and polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia. Biopsy specimen obtained from the rectum revealed diffuse medium-sized lymphoma cell with plasmocytosis. Histochemical analysis with
Multi-organ infection with Fasciola hepatica is uncommon. We report a case of severe infection with Fasciola hepatica as a cause of liver and peritoneum injuries with hemorrhagic ascites as well as pulmonary, pericardial, splenic and portal system injuries in a 37-year old man who was a native of
Eosinophilia has long been known as a hallmark of Churg-Strauss syndrome but has rarely been reported in Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). Here we describe a patient with WG who had skin, kidney and lung involvement as well as striking peripheral eosinophilia and hyperimmunoglobulinaemia E (hyper-IgE).
BACKGROUND
Autoimmune hepatitis is a rare form of hepatitis of nonviral origin. Two main subentities have been described. The classical lupoid hepatitis (type I) is characterized by hypergammaglobulinemia and the presence of lupus erythematosus cells due to antinuclear antibodies. Autoimmune
Normal and autoimmune mice were studied with regard to signals eliciting differentiation and division of bone marrow stem cells. The erythropoiesis induced by anemia following serial bleedings was analyzed in young autoimmune New Zealand Black (NZB) mice and non-autoimmune strains. No difference in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical manifestations, immunological features and prognosis of primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) with anticentromere antibodies (ACA).
METHODS
Sixty pSS patients with ACA in our hospital between 1985 and 2006 were screened retrospectively and compared with those without
Hypergammaglobulinemia increases serum viscosity and is the most common cause of hyperviscosity syndrome. Monoclonal hypergammaglobulinemia resulting in hyperviscosity syndrome is seen in multiple myeloma and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. The reasons for elevated viscosity are increased protein
Hemophiliacs require frequent infusions of allogeneic proteins to control bleeding. Previous reports have demonstrated that thymus-derived lymphocytes (T cells) from hemophiliacs are antigenically primed to the lyophilized antihemophilic factor and that natural killer cells from hemophiliacs
The skin is one of the organs most commonly affected by vasculitis and the only one that is open to direct inspection. Cutaneous vasculitis can be part of a systemic vasculitis, a variant restricted to the skin (e.g. systemic and cutaneous IgA1 vasculitis) or an independent cutaneous form (recurrent
The course of a patient with rheumatoid hyperviscosity syndrome is described. Manifestations of hyperviscosity included somnolence, circulatory overload, bleeding diathesis and dilated retinal veins. Serum hyperviscosity was associated with marked hypergammaglobulinemia, elevated IgM and IgG serum
The skin is one of the organs most frequently involved in vasculitides. Cutaneous vasculitis may present (1) part of a systemic vasculitis (e.g., IgA vasculitis), (2) a skin-restricted or skin-dominant variant of the corresponding systemic vasculitis without clinically apparent visceral involvement
OBJECTIVE
To provide the clinical, laboratory, radiological, morphological, and immunomorphological signs that permit the differential diagnosis to be made in patients with involvement of the nasal cavity and accessory sinuses (NCAS).
METHODS
In the period 2009 to 2013, the Laboratory for Intensive
