[Renal thrombohemolytic microangiopathy (author's transl)]. 1976

H K Stummvoll, and H Sinzinger, and A Wolf, and W F Pinggera, and C Leithner

The clinical findings in three patients with renal thrombohemolytic microangiopathy are presented. The triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, disseminated intravascular coagulation and microangiopathic changes of the kidney leading to renal insufficiency is the characteristic feature of this disease. Beside the usual classification based on etiological factors (distinguishing between primary and symptomatic forms) a topographical classification (distinguishing between generalized forms and localized forms occuring in isolated organs) is suggested. The pathogenesis and therapy of this disorder are discussed.

D011697 Purpura, Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic An acquired, congenital, or familial disorder caused by PLATELET AGGREGATION with THROMBOSIS in terminal arterioles and capillaries. Clinical features include THROMBOCYTOPENIA; HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA; AZOTEMIA; FEVER; and thrombotic microangiopathy. The classical form also includes neurological symptoms and end-organ damage, such as RENAL FAILURE. Mutations in the ADAMTS13 PROTEIN gene have been identified in familial cases.

D004211 Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation A disorder characterized by procoagulant substances entering the general circulation causing a systemic thrombotic process. The activation of the clotting mechanism may arise from any of a number of disorders. A majority of the patients manifest skin lesions, sometimes leading to PURPURA FULMINANS.
