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.

Hematuria

The presence of blood in the urine. Hematuria may be gross hematuria (visible to the naked eye) or microscopic hematuria (detected by dipstick or microscopic examination of the urine).

It is known to be associated with sickle cell hemoglobinopathies; however a wide range of etiologies are possible, and it is therefore not the first diagnosis clinicians consider in patients with sickle cell disease who present with hematuria.

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.

Hematuria may be found in patients with sickle cell trait, sickle cell anemia, and sickle cell hemoglobin C disease, but it is believed to be uncommon in patients with other hemoglobinopathies, such as hemoglobin C disease and hemoglobin C trait.
