A dual etiology is responsible: direct toxicity of VPA on bone marrow and VPA’s inclusion with and modification of the platelet membrane [ 4 ]. Acute TMA in conjunction with VPA toxicity has, to our knowledge, not been reported.[bmcnephrol.biomedcentral.com]
Hemolytic anemia has multiple causes, and the clinical presentation can differ depending on the etiology.[emedicine.medscape.com]
Epidemiology AIHA is a relatively rare disorder in children and is most often seen after a recent viral illness.[pedclerk.bsd.uchicago.edu]
These questions should be focused on three main areas: High risk behavior or exposures, Local infectious disease epidemiology, Travel to areas that are endemic for specific infectious pathogens.[clinicaladvisor.com]
Epidemiology Hemolytic anemia represents approximately 5% of all anemias. Acute AIHA is relatively rare, with an incidence of one to three cases per 100,000 population per year. [27] Hemolytic anemias are not specific to any race.[emedicine.medscape.com]

Pathophysiology Hemolysis can be due to hereditary and acquired disorders. [1, 2] The etiology of premature erythrocyte destruction is diverse and can be due to conditions such as intrinsic membrane defects, abnormal hemoglobins, erythrocyte enzymatic[emedicine.medscape.com]
Causes include RBC membrane abnormalities such as bound immunoglobulin, or physical abnormalities restricting RBC deformability that prevent egress from the spleen. Extravascular hemolysis is characterized by spherocytes.[med-ed.virginia.edu]
Anemia Prevention Some common forms of anemia are most easily prevented by eating a healthy diet and limiting alcohol use. Many types of anemia can be avoided by seeing a doctor regularly to check blood tests and when problems arise.[emedicinehealth.com]

Acute, fulminating hemolytic anemic crisis is treated with fluid and electrolyte replacement to prevent shock and renal damage from clogging the kidney tubules by red cell debris. Transfusions of blood products are sometimes given.[innvista.com]
Management of TTP/HUS must be initiated emergently if this diagnosis is suspected to prevent adverse outcomes. Treatment of TTP/HUS involves plasma exchange. Avoid platelet transfusions as this may lead to exacerbation of symptoms.[clinicaladvisor.com]
