| Popis: | Two patients with sickle cell disease were diagnosed with aplastic crisis caused by acute parvovirus B19 infection. One patient also developed thrombocytopenia associated with hemophagocytic histiocytosis in the bone marrow biopsy. Both patients developed transient blood plasmacytosis and hypocomplementemia soon after admission to the hospital. Transient blood plasmacytosis may be an immunological response to acute parvovirus B19 infection. |
