摘要
A 50-year-old man was admitted suffering from severe anemia and renal dysfunction. He had been admitted for the first time at the age of 49, and was diagnosed with multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD) and secondary amyloidosis. At that time, marked erythroid hypoplasia was demonstrated by both aspiration and biopsy of bone marrow. A diagnosis of pure red-cell aplasia (PRCA) was made. Immunosuppressive agents improved his symptoms and laboratory data. We report here a very rare case of PRCA following MCD and amyloidosis, and with reference to the literature, we discuss the relation between MCD and related diseases.
