    Extractions: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a serious, life threatening disease. This site was set up to help owners make informed decisions about the care of their pet. It is not intended to take the place of a veterinarian, only to provide information on treatment options available and basic information about the disease. It is important to realize that having an AIHA dog requires a TOTAL commitment. Not only will this disease require a lot of time, but the emotional and financial burden can be great. The medications can be quite expensive and added to the veterinarian bills, can become overwhelming. You will need to adjust your schedule around visits to the vet and administering medications. The financial burden and time limitation are insignificant compared to the emotional roller coaster you will be on. This is a disease that can be controlled, but there is no cure.

    Extractions: Hemolytic Anemia Hemolytic anemia describes the condition in which this loss of red blood cells occurs because the red cells break up (lyse). This can happen inside the blood vessels (intravascular hemolysis) or outside of the blood vessel (extravascular hemolysis). Hemolytic anemia can occur for many reasons, including heat stroke, parasites, viral infections. toxins and other conditions. One of the things that can cause hemolytic anemia is immune system disease - in this case the disorder is known as immune mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA). This is the term currently preferred for the condition formerly known as auto-immune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). The reason for the subtle name change is the recognition that much of the time the immune system really is attacking an invader it just happens to be one that is stuck on the red blood cell so both get destroyed.

Medical Encyclopedia Go To Main Page Alternate Names : Anemia - Immune Hemolytic - Secondary to Drugs, Immune Hemolytic Anemia Secondary to Drugs Definition Drug-induced immune hemolytic anemia is an acquired form of hemolytic anemia caused by interaction of certain drugs with the immune system. The result is the production of antibodies against the red blood cells and premature red blood cell destruction. Antibodies Drug-induced immune hemolytic anemia occurs when certain drugs start an immune reaction against red blood cells. In some instances, the drugs interact with the red blood cell membrane, causing the cell to become antigenic. This means the body identifies these cells as not belonging to the body.

    Extractions: Hereditary Spherocytic Hemolytic Anemia is a rare blood disorder characterized by defects within red blood cells (intracorpuscular) that result in a shortened survival time for these cells. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) normally circulate for a few months and when they die off are replaced by new erythrocytes. However, in Hereditary Spherocytic Hemolytic Anemia, the cells die prematurely. They also have low amounts of fats (lipid) in the cell membranes and an abnormally small amount of surface area. The red blood cells are sphere shaped (spherocytic) making it difficult for them to pass through the spleen, resulting in the early destruction of these cells (hemolysis). The sphere shape of the red blood cells is the hallmark of Hereditary Spherocytic Hemolytic Anemia, and this abnormality may be identified under a microscope. Hereditary Spherocytic Hemolytic Anemia is caused by an inherited metabolic defect.

    Acquired Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells.  
    http://my.webmd.com/hw/health_guide_atoz/nord771.asp
    
    Extractions: Acquired Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells. Autoimmune diseases occur when the body's natural defenses against invading organisms (e.g., lymphocytes, antibodies) destroy healthy tissue for unknown reasons. Normally, the red blood cells have a life span of approximately 120 days before they are removed by the spleen. In an individual affected with Acquired Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia, the red blood cells are destroyed prematurely and bone marrow production of new cells can no longer compensate for their loss. The severity of this type of anemia is determined by the time the red blood cell is allowed to survive in an affected person, and by the capacity of the bone marrow to continue red cell production.

38. Anemia
    In a condition known as autoimmune hemolytic anemia, the immune system mistakes red blood cells for foreign invaders and begins destroying them.  
    http://kidshealth.org/parent/medical/heart/anemia.html
    
    Extractions: Anemia, one of the more common blood disorders, occurs when the number of healthy red blood cells decreases in the body. The disc-shaped red blood cells contain hemoglobin , a unique molecule that carries oxygen to the body's tissues. Anemia occurs for different reasons. These include: In some cases anemia results from an inherited disorder , whereas in other cases the condition is caused by something in a person's environment , such as a nutritional problem, infection, or exposure to a drug or toxin. Anemia Caused by Destruction of Red Blood Cells Hemolytic ("hemo" means blood, "lytic" means destroying) anemia occurs when red blood cells are being destroyed prematurely and the bone marrow (the soft, spongy tissue inside bones that produces new blood cells) simply can't keep up with the body's demand for new cells. This can happen for a variety of reasons. Sometimes, infections or certain medications - such as antibiotics or antiseizure medicines - are to blame. In a condition known as autoimmune hemolytic anemia , the immune system mistakes red blood cells for foreign invaders and begins destroying them. Other children inherit defects in the red blood cells, which may involve the RBC's structure or the production of hemoglobin or RBC enzymes. Common forms of inherited hemolytic anemia include sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

    Extractions: Definition Red blood cells have a normal life span of approximately 90-120 days, at which time the old cells are destroyed and replaced by the body's natural processes. Hemolytic anemia is a disorder in which the red blood cells are destroyed prematurely. The cells are broken down at a faster rate than the bone marrow can produce new cells. Hemoglobin, the component of red blood cells that carries oxygen, is released when these cells are destroyed. Description As a group, anemias (conditions in which the number of red blood cells or the amount of hemoglobin in them is below normal) are the most common blood disorders. Hemolytic anemias, which result from the increased destruction of red blood cells, are less common than anemias caused by excessive blood loss or by decreased hemoglobin or red cell production. Since a number of factors can increase red blood cell destruction, hemolytic anemias are generally identified by the disorder that brings about the premature destruction. Those disorders are classified as either inherited or acquired. Inherited hemolytic anemias are caused by inborn defects in components of the red blood cells-the cell membrane, the enzymes, or the hemoglobin. Acquired hemolytic anemias are those that result from various other causes. With this type, red cells are produced normally, but are prematurely destroyed because of damage that occurs to them in the circulation. Causes and symptoms Inherited hemolytic anemias involve conditions that interfere with normal red blood cell production. Disorders that affect the red blood cell membrane include hereditary spherocytosis, in which the normally disk-shaped red cells become spherical, and hereditary elliptocytosis, in which the cells are oval, rather than disk-shaped. Other hereditary conditions that cause hemolytic anemia include disorders of the hemoglobin, such as sickle cell anemia and
