Sickle cell anemia

Sickle cell anemias are chronic hemolytic diseases that may induce three types of acute accidents: severe anemia, severe bacterial infections, and ischemic vasoocclusive accidents (VOA) caused by sickle-shaped red blood cells obstructing small blood vessels and capillaries. Many diverse complications can occur.

We report what is to our knowledge the first reported case of a 9-year-old Saudi girl with sickle cell anemia who developed posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome secondary to asymptomatic poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome can be the presenting feature of postinfectious glomerulonephritis, which has been reported in approximately 5% of hospitalized children, and it has been reported in very few cases of adult patients with sickle cell anemia.

A novel case report of sickle cell disease-associated immunoglobulin A nephropathy: the diagnostic value of erythrocyte dysmorphism evaluation.
Silva GE, Teixeira AC, Vergna JG, Salgado-Filho N, Crivellentti LZ, Costa RS, Dantas M.
Int J Clin Exp Med. 2014;7(6):1619-22.
Despite the fact that immunoglobulin A nephropathy is the most commonly diagnosed glomerulonephritis worldwide, an association between this entity and sickle cell disease has not yet been reported, probably because all cases of hematuria in patients with sickle cell disease have been regarded as secondary to sickle cell disease.

Sickle-cell disease and poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis.
Roy S, Murphy WM, Pitcock JA, Rimer RL.

Since proliferative glomerulonephritis of either poststreptococcal or non-poststreptococcal etiology may be seen in patients who have sickle-cell disease, immunofluorescence and/or electron microscopic examination is essential for accurate diagnosis.
