Abstract

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare type of acquired hemolytic anemia affecting all hematopoietic cell types. The abnormality of red blood cells in this disease predisposes to intravascular complement-mediated hemolysis. This study aimed to investigate PNH clone detection in pregnancy by the A fluorescein-labeled proaerolysin variant (FLAER) era. We have reviewed all pregnant and non-pregnant patients with a new diagnosis of PNH admitted between 2007 and 2014 in "First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University", China. Overall survival (OS) and event free survival (EFS) of the patients, and their relation with demographic and clinico-pathological factors have been analyzed.
