A 62-year-old male, his back has been red and swelling for 1 week. At first it was a small piece of skin induration of about 3×2cm, with multiple pus spots, then the skin swelling area expanded, infiltrating edema appeared, local pain increased, the surface skin was purple-brown with area about 6×5cm, the body temperature was 39.2℃, and he had diabetes history for 10+ years. The following treatment measures are incorrect for this patient: Remove pus and inactivated tissue The incision line should exceed the edge of the lesion The incision can be filled with yarn One-stage suture of the incision Make a "++" incision
Xin’s blood was drawn and testing was conducted. His hematocrit was 45% and white-blood cell count was 2,500 white-blood cells/mm3, with the differential showing neutrophils 65%, lymphocytes 25%, monocytes 10%. A biopsy was taken of one of the discolored lesions and cell culture. After three days of growth the cells were confirmed as coming from malignant cancerous tissue. A magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the area around the skin lesions on Xin’s inner thigh revealed enlarged lymph nodes, a sign of potential metastasis. DNA sequencing of the lesion biopsy revealed DNA consistent with human herpesvirus 8, known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, leading to the diagnosis of Kaposi’s sarcoma. - What Disorders can be ruled in and out from this diagnosis?
A 45-year-old man noticed multiple pinpoint red spots and bruises on his arms and legs. The hematologist confirmed the presence of petechiae, purpura, and ecchymoses on his extremities and ordered a complete blood count, prothrombin time, and partial thromboplastin time. The platelet count was 40 x 109/L, the mean platelet volume was 12.2 fL, and the diameter of platelets on the Wright-stained peripheral blood film appeared to exceed 6 mm. Other complete blood count parameters and the coagulation parameters were within normal limits. A Wright-stained bone marrow aspirate smear revealed 10 to 12 small unlobulated megakaryocytes per low-power microscopic field. Do these signs and symptoms indicate systemic (mucocutaneous) or anatomical (soft tissue) bleeding? Why?

A Wright-stained bone marrow aspirate smear revealed 10 to 12 small unlobulated megakaryocytes per low-power microscopic field. Is the thrombocytopenia the result of inadequate bone marrow production? Explain why. Do these signs and symptoms indicate systemic (mucocutaneous) or anatomical (soft tissue) bleeding? Why?
BACKGROUND A 2-year-old black girl is being seen by the hematologist after her pediatrician found her to be severely anemic with splenomegaly and jaundice. Her mother gives a possible history of a “blood problem” in her family but doesn’t know for sure. Her hemoglobin electrophoresis was normal, and the complete blood count (CBC) revealed a normocytic anemia. The platelet and white blood cell counts are normal. On the peripheral smear, there are many bizarre erythrocytes, including spiculated cells. A diagnosis of pyruvate kinase deficiency is made. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) can be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, which means that a child must inherit a gene with the disease-causing mutation from both parents in order for the disorder to be inherited. The PLKR gene regulates the synthesis of the pyruvate kinase enzyme, which is located in the liver and red blood cells. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the premature…
An elderly couple was killed in an accident. No surviving relatives are known, so their estate have been willed to chasrity. Later, a man claims that he is their child. Although friends of the couple knew that they had a son, no record of this can be found. Medical records show that the dead man was A Rh’, his wife was B Rh- and the claimant’s blood tests as O Rh’. Does it appear that his claim is valid? Justify your conclusion. A student in genetics is B’. She reports that her father is B- and her mother is O’. Give this student’s genotype for the ABO and Rh blood types.
An 50 yo female patient who had a post-partum bleeding. Blood type is O Rh -, Hemoglobin 85mg/dl, Medical Hstory: G2P2 (2002), (+) Multiple Myeloma, non-hypertensive, no history of previous obstetric and gynecologic pathology. The attending physician ordered for Blood transfusion, to secure 3 units of whole blood, properly typed and crossmatched. Forward and reverse typing showed the following results: Forward reactions: Anti-A (4+) Anti-B (0) Reverse reactions: A1 Cells (2+) B Cells (0) Microscopy: Presence of Rouleaux formation A. What is the probable blood type of this patient? B. Describe the discrepancies? Type of discrepancy? C. What testing would you perform next to resolve the discrepancy?
