She has 2 daughters who are also anemic with intermittent jaundice. Presently at age 57 she is being again evaluated for arthritis and her chronic anemia. Based upon the patient's medical history and her most current laboratory data below, this patient is a classic case of: A. Anemia of chronic liver disease B. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria C. Hereditary Spherocytosis D. Aplastic Anemia

Hereditary Spherocytosis

Which of the following is a normocytic/normochromic anemia with marrow hyperplasia? A. Pernicious anemia B. Acute intermittent porphyria C. Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia D. Anemia of liver disease

Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia

A 25 year-old male presented a blood picture of a chronic microcytic/normochromic anemia. His lab results also demonstrated hematuria, an absolute neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia. His osmotic fragility test was normal but the sugar-water test and Ham's test was positive. Based on these results this patient likely has: A. A G-6-PD deficiency B. Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria C. Iron deficiency anemia due to chronic blood loss D. Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria

Which of the following anemias has a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) at 22 o C? A. Hemolytic disease of the newborn B. Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria C. Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia D. G-6PD Deficiency

Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria

All of the following are vital functions of glutathione (GSH) oxidation/reduction in the Phosphogluconate Pathway, EXCEPT: A. GSH is an important to eliminate the buildup of intracellular oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide B. The pathway functions to preserve vital RBC enzymes and the oxyhemoglobin form of hemoglobin C. Results in the two ATP molecules being produced for every one molecule of NADPH being changed to NADP D. The pathway is important in the conversion of small amounts of Hgb-M (methemoglobin) back to Hgb-A

Shift reticulocytosis

A 57 year-old female was diagnosed to be anemic 25 years ago. At age 34 she developed jaundice after the birth of her first child. Years later she again developed jaundice after taking antibiotics for an upper-respiratory infection. Two years after that she again became jaundiced with a viral infection. She has 2 daughters who are also anemic with intermittent jaundice. Presently at age 57 she is being again evaluated for arthritis and her chronic anemia. The technologist when examining this patient's (Question 2) blood smear, reported 2+ microcytes. The hemogram from the coulter cell counter, however, indicated A MCV of 98 fL. The best explanation for these conflicting results would be: A. The patient is also B12 deficient B. The technologist needs to go back to school. C. Shift reticulocytosis, and the presence of spherocytes D. The microcytes produce an artificially low Hct value which would by calculation, falsely increase the MCV. E. The increased bilirubin and decreased haptoglobin found in this patient is common with complicating liver problems, which would produce a large population of target cells and hence, a higher MCV

Shift reticulocytosis, and the presence of spherocytes

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is best characterized by which of the following? A. Rouleaux formation B. Spherocytes C. Stomatocytes D. Helmet cells

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a disorder of chronic intravascular hemolysis because: A. An autoantibody is produced against the red cell's Rh surface antigens B. The RBCs are rendered hypersensitive to complement C3 binding C. There is an abnormal beta-globin amino acid substitution resulting in hemoglobin precipitation and premature hemolysis D. There is an inherited glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

The RBCs are rendered hypersensitive to complement C3 binding

The Fluorescent Spot Test for a G-6PD deficiency is based on the principle of: A. The oxidation of NADP to NADPH which will fluoresce B. The loss of fluorescence when NADH is reduced to NAD C. Precipitated alpha-1, beta-1 dimers fluoresce D. The production of fluorescent Hgb-M in the absence of G-6PD

The oxidation of NADP to NADPH which will fluoresce

Genetic G-6PD deficiency presents with 2 genetic isoenzyme variations.
