    Rh (D) alloimmunization treated by double filtration plasmapheresis
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019) Bek, Sibel Gokcay; Eren, Necmi; Uzay, Ant; Bakirdogen, Serkan
    Here in this report a 31 year old pregnant woman with positive serum antiglobulin test against anti-D antierythrocyte antibodies who was treated succesfully with double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) is presented. The DFPP was started in the early stage of pregnancy together with intravenous immunoglobulin therapy and the antierythrocyte antibody titer of the patient was successfully maintained in a stable level below 1:64 dilution. She delivered successfully on the 30th week of gestation. The favorable outcome of this patient implies that DFPP is an effective and safe treatment modality in pregnant women with red cell all oimmunization.

    INTRODUCTION: Studies in healthy individuals andpatients with coronary artery disease have demonstratedthat circulating platelet and leukocyte counts affect plateletaggregation. The aim of our study was to investigatewhether there is such a relationship betweenleukocyte/platelet counts and platelet aggregation in endstagerenal disease patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD).METHODS: Forty-three PD patients were included in thestudy. Multiple electrode aggregometry method capable ofmeasuring platelet aggregation in whole blood was used.RESULTS: A statistically significant positive correlationbetween platelet aggregation and leukocyte and platelet countsin complete blood count (CBC) was seen. This positivecorrelation was stronger for platelets than leukocytes.DISCUSSION and CONCLUSION: Platelet and leukocytecounts in CBC in PD patients might be important on plateletaggregation. This might be another risk factor contributing toalready increased thrombosis risk in these patients.
