The Stomatological Complications of Diamond-Blackfan Anemia: A Case Report.
Clinical Medicine & Research 2016 June
Diamond-Blackfan Anemia (DBA) is a rare heterogeneous genetic disease characterized by severe anemia, reduction or absence of erythroid progenitors, and pro-apoptoptic hematopoiesis, which culminates in bone marrow failure. The disease generally manifests in infancy, as craniofacial, cardiac, genitourinary, and upper limb congenital anomalies. Therapy with corticoids is the treatment of choice, while blood transfusion is adopted during diagnosis and as a chronic approach if the patient does not respond to corticoids. This case report describes DBA in a patient that presented with lesions on the oral mucosa caused by secondary neutropenia. The stomatologist plays an important role in a transdisciplinary team and must remain attentive to the general health conditions of patients, since some oral lesions may be associated with systemic events.
