Acute Sideroblastic Anemia in Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Abstract: This work describes the development of sideroblastic anemia (SA) during the clinical activity of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in two patients. The cases refer to two women with SLE who developed SA during a relapse of the illness. Both patients fulfilled at least four criteria of the American Association of Rheumatology for SLE. In one patient, the treatment with prednisone was followed by the resolution of the SLE activity and the disappearance of the SA. Several years later there was no evidence of rin… Show more

“…congenital dyserythropoietic anemias, thalassemias, congenital dyserythropoietic porphyria 1 or hereditary sideroblastic anemia 2 or acquired MDS, as well as secondary disorders. Secondary myelodysplasia-like changes are found in severe illness, 3 after exposure to drugs, 4 toxins, 5,6 autoimmune diseases, 7 vitamin B12, folate and copper deficiency, 8,9 parvovirus B19 infection 10 or excessive alcohol intake. 11,12 They are neither neoplastic nor pre-leukemic.…”

“…Autoimmunity against the erythroid lineage usually results in erythroblastopenia rather than in dyserythropoiesis: suppression of haematopoiesis by IgG autoantibodies has been demonstrated in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus ( Liu et al , 1995 ). Moreover, a few cases of steroid‐responsive dyserythropoiesis have been reported in association with lupus erythematosus and have been considered to be secondary to an autoimmune mechanism ( Jimenez‐Balderas et al , 1994 ; Kettaneh et al , 1998 ). Similarly, autoimmune myelodysplasia, regressive under immunosuppressive therapy, appears to be a clinical entity that probably results from an immune attack, directed against the haematopoietic precursor cells ( Miescher et al , 1991 ).…”
