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.

Rosa RM, Bierer BE, Thomas R, Stoff JS, Kruskall M, Robinson S, Bunn HF, Epstein FH.
N Engl J Med. 1980;303(20):1138-43.
In three patients with sickle-cell anemia who had been disabled by recurrent painful crises, sustained dilutional hyponatremia was induced by 1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) in combination with a high fluid intake.

J Pediatr. 1976;88(5):800-5.
Severe hyponatremia has been observed in three children with sickle cell disease, and mild hyponatremia was noted during 36% of random hospitalizations for sickle crisis secondary to vasoocclusion or infection.
