  • Evans Syndrome As Rare Presentation in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Z. Wadia2, Dr Priyanka Lad1 1Resident Doctor, Department of Internal Medicine, Government Medical College, Surat 2Additional Professor, Department of Internal Medicine, Government Medical College, Surat Corresponding Author: Dr Sabarish Mahalingam ABSTRACT Evans syndrome is a rare disorder in which the body’s immune system produces antibodies that mistakenly destroy red blood cells, platelets and sometimes certain white blood cell known as neutrophils. It is one of the rare presenting features of autoimmune disorders, especially systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and sometimes may even precede the onset of disease. Primary Evans syndrome with no cause is very rare and is seen in children. Here, we describe a case of secondary Evans syndrome with severe autoimmune hemolytic anemia leading to acute kidney injury. This is one of the rare presentations of SLE and there are only few case reports. Key word: Evans syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, autoimmune haemolytic anaemia.

ES is a rare situation that represents up to 7% of AIHA and around 2% of ITP. When AIHA and ITP occurred concomitantly, the diagnosis procedure must rule out differential diagnoses such as thrombotic microangiopathies, anaemia due to bleedings complicating ITP, vitamin deficiencies, myelodysplastic syndromes, paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria, or specific conditions like HELLP when occurring during pregnancy. As for isolated auto-immune cytopenia (AIC), the determination of the primary or secondary nature of ES is important. Indeed, the association of ES with other diseases such as haematological malignancies, systemic lupus erythematosus, infections, or primary immune deficiencies can interfere with its management or alter its prognosis.

He had a past medical history of pericarditis and pericardial effusion. His evaluation showed anemia and thrombocytopenia. He was admitted for intravenous administration of steroids, plasmapheresis, and workup of his anemia and thrombocytopenia. He was ultimately diagnosed with Evans syndrome as a presenting feature of systemic lupus erythematosus. Plasmapheresis was stopped but administration of steroids continued. His blood counts improved, and the facial swelling and rash subsided. Evans syndrome is an immunologic conundrum that requires early recognition and treatment. [Clin Pract Cases Emerg Med. 2019;3(2):128-131.] INTRODUCTION the chief complaint of facial swelling, which had been present Evans syndrome (ES) is a very rare autoimmune disease for the prior three weeks.

Coexistence of these syndromes is potentially fatal and require high- Antiphospholipid syndrome dose combined immunosuppressive therapy. We describe a case of successful use of Bortezomib and plasma Hemolysis exchange in a patient with ES and APS refractory to standard therapy. Thirty-two-year-old male who presented Thrombosis episodes of relapsing hemolytic anemia, pancytopenia and multiple thrombosis with positive direct and indirect Bortezomib antiglobulin test result, lupus anticoagulant and medium titer of anti-beta-2-glycoprotein 1 and anti-cardiolipin antibodies was diagnosed with ES and SLE with secondary APS. High-dose therapy by steroids and Cyclosporin A were started with temporary improvement. There was also no stable improvement with Rituximab and Cyclophosphamide. Bortezomib in combination with cyclosporine A and plasma exchange was introduced.

It is characterized by variable degrees of taneous bleeding was diagnosed with acquired thrombas- mucocutaneous bleeding, at times life-threatening [1]. Routine thenia. The diagnosis was based on lack of platelet aggregation coagulation tests as well as platelet volume and morphology are with adenosine diphosphate (ADP), arachidonic acid and normal. Platelets aggregate in response to ristocetin but will fail collagen, and normal aggregation induced by ristocetin. to do so with other agonists, such as adenosine diphosphate, Objective: To study the mechanism of platelet function inhi- thrombin, collagen and epinephrine [1]. Acquired thrombas- bition in a patient with acquired thrombasthenia. thenia due to autoantibodies has been associated with immune Methods: Aggregation assays of platelets from the patient thrombocytopenic purpura [2,3], tacrolimus therapy for renal and healthy controls were performed. In addition, anti- transplantation [4], acute lymphoblastic leukemia [5], non- glycoprotein (GP) IIbIIIa antibodies binding to normal platelets in the presence or absence of the patient’s serum was studied Hodgkin’s lymphoma, hairy cell leukemia, multiple myloma, by flow cytometry.
