🟥 Types of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)
🔺 1. HbSS (Sickle Cell Anemia)
Most common and usually most severe form.
HbS is the predominant hemoglobin.
HbA absent.
🔺 2. HbSC Disease
Inherits HbS from one parent and HbC from the other.
Usually milder than HbSS, but serious complications can occur.
🔺 3. HbS/β-Thalassemia
HbS combined with β-thalassemia.
HbS/β⁰-thalassemia: Usually severe; HbA absent.
HbS/β⁺-thalassemia: Variable severity; some HbA present.
🔺 4. Other rare forms
- HbS combined with other abnormal hemoglobins, such as HbSD or HbSE.
525
🟥 Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) – Pathophysiology
🔺 Cause:
Autosomal recessive disorder.
Point mutation in β-globin gene (HBB).
Glutamic acid → Valine at position 6 → formation of HbS.
🔺 Mechanism:
Deoxygenation → HbS polymerization → RBC sickling → decreased deformability + membrane damage.
🔻 Two main pathways:
🩸 1. Hemolysis
RBC destruction → chronic hemolytic anemia.
↑ Unconjugated bilirubin → jaundice + pigment gallstones.
↑ Reticulocyte count.
🩸 2. Vaso-occlusion
Sickled RBCs adhere to endothelium and obstruct small vessels.
Ischemia → tissue injury → severe pain (vaso-occlusive crisis).
Repeated splenic infarctions → functional asplenia → ↑ risk of infections.
🔺 Factors that trigger sickling:
Hypoxia.
Dehydration.
Acidosis.
Infection.
525
🟥 Haemolytic Anemia (HA)
HA = Premature RBC destruction → ↓ RBC lifespan → anemia.
🔺 Causes: Autoimmune, G6PD deficiency, hereditary spherocytosis, sickle cell disease.
🔺 Mechanism: RBC destruction ↑ → Hb ↓ → bilirubin ↑ → anemia + jaundice.
🔴 Main symptoms:
• Pallor, fatigue, weakness
• Jaundice
• Dark urine
• Splenomegaly
💡 Investigations — R-L-I-H
🔺 Reticulocytes: ↑ 🔺 LDH: ↑ 🔺 Indirect bilirubin: ↑ 🔺 Haptoglobin: ↓
💡 Management — C-T-S
• C — Cause: Treat the underlying cause.
• T — Treatment: Corticosteroids for autoimmune hemolysis, if indicated.
• S — Supportive care: Folic acid; blood transfusion if severe or clinically indicated.

السلام عليكم طلاب
تواصلت معي زميلتكم طالبة معنا والدتها عدها كانسر

🟥 DIC (Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation)
DIC = Widespread coagulation → microthrombi + consumption of platelets & clotting factors.
🔺 Causes: Sepsis, trauma, malignancy, obstetric complications.
🔺 Mechanism: Trigger → thrombin ↑ → microthrombi → consumption of platelets & factors → bleeding.
🔴 Main symptoms:
Petechiae, purpura
Epistaxis, gum bleeding
Bleeding from IV sites
Organ dysfunction due to microthrombi
💡 Investigations — P-P-F-D
🔺Platelets: ↓
🔺PT/aPTT: ↑
🔺Fibrinogen: ↓
🔺D-dimer: ↑
💡 Management — T-B-F
1-T — Treat underlying cause.
2-B — Blood products: Platelets,
FFP, cryoprecipitate if indicated.
3-F — Follow-up: Monitor coagulation tests and clinical status.
525
🟥ITP (Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura)
ITP = Immune destruction of platelets
🔺• Cause: Anti-platelet antibodies → attack GP IIb/IIIa.(plt. Receptor)
🔺• Where destroyed? Mainly spleen → ↓ platelets.
🔴• Main symptoms:
→ Bruising
→ Epistaxis
→ Menorrhagia
→ Severe ↓ platelets → spontaneous bleeding.
🔺 <10 × 10⁹/L: risk of intracranial bleeding
• Splenomegaly: Usually absent.
💡Management — Remember: S → S → IVIG → R
1. Steroids → first line. (prednisolone 1mg/kg)
2. IVIG → if rapid platelet increase is needed.(immunoglobulin 1g/kg)
يعني اذا الطفل وزنه مثلا (30kg)
تنطيه 30g immunoglobuline
3. Rituximab / TPO agonists → persistent cases.
4. Splenectomy → refractory/chronic cases.

🔴 Grey Turner’s sign
is a medical sign characterized by bluish-purple bruising on the flanks (the sides of the body between the lower ribs and hips). It takes 24 to 48 hours to appear and indicates retroperitoneal hemorrhage (bleeding behind the abdominal cavity).
🔺-retropertonail bleeding
🔴Causes
Severe acute pancreatitis
Ruptured ectopic pregnancy
Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)
Abdominal or retroperitoneal trauma

+1
🔴Cullen’s sign is a medical term for bruising, swelling, and dark discoloration (yellow, blue, purple, brown, or black) around the belly button (umbilicus).
🔺It indicates internal bleeding (hemorrhage) in the abdominal or retroperitoneal cavity.
🔺Common Causes
_Acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis
_Ruptured ectopic pregnancy
_Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm.
_Abdominal trauma
