Presentation
A diagnostic and therapeutic approach is presented, based on international guidelines, disease registries and published trials. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It is unrelated to time from transplantation and often presents with concomitant infection, which tends to confound diagnosis. The cases discussed here have a common causative agent and all present with concomitant infection. [archbronconeumol.org]
For the 5 weeks before presentation, he had been injecting the new tamper-resistant formulation because he was unable to access the discontinued crushable form. [mja.com.au]
The 2 youngest patients presented with concomitant pulmonary and renal disease; in the older patients, PAH was preceded by rTMA from age 2.5 to 7 years. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
She presented high blood pressure, decreased urine output (with no macroscopic changes), and impaired renal function. [revistanefrologia.com]
Skin

- Epistaxis
Creatinine levels deteriorated, falling to 3.92 mg/dl (0.73 mg/dl on admission), hematocrit fell to 22.6% and thrombocytopenia to 18 000/μl, causing repeated epistaxis. [archbronconeumol.org]
Workup
The differential diagnoses are generally broad, while the workup is frequently complex and can be confusing. [mayoclinicproceedings.org]
The lack of early response to plasma exchange prompted extensive laboratory workup. Ultimately, the patient completely recovered with negative fluid balance and control of severe hypertension. [bmcnephrol.biomedcentral.com]
Clinical Workup The clinical measures examined were blood chemistry, cardiovascular assessment, clinical tests and physiological recordings. [journals.plos.org]
Treatment
The review suggested that there may be an association between interferon beta treatment and thrombotic microangiopathy and between interferon beta treatment and nephrotic syndrome. [gov.uk]
Interferon treatment was discontinued and treatment with renin angiotensin system inhibitors was initiated. [revistanefrologia.com]
In the past, Defibrotide treatment has appeared to be sufficiently safe and promising in the treatment of VOD and TA-TMA [ 20, 23, 30, 39, 40 ]. [esciencecentral.org]
Treatment and outcome The median follow-up time was 20.7 months (range, 1–66 mo). The α-IFN treatment was discontinued early in 7 patients. [journals.lww.com]

In post kidney transplantation TMA have a better prognosis, and if limited to the allograft, resolution is reported around to 80%. [kidneypathology.com]
Microphthalmos with cyst had the worst prognosis, coloboma with microcornea and microphthalmos a poor prognosis, coloboma with only microcornea had an intermediate prognosis, and simple coloboma had the best prognosis. [aao.org]

The offending agent suspected of causing the TMA should be promptly discontinued to prevent further progression of injury. If the offending agent needs to be redosed, caution should be taken to re-introduce the drug at a lower dose. [ajkdblog.org]
