Transient severe anemia triggered by parvovirus B19 infection in a patient with homozygous RhAG deficiency.
Background: Deficiency of Rh antigens affects the red blood cell (RBC) membrane integrity, thus reducing erythrocyte survival, clinically manifesting as chronic hemolytic anemia. Various mutations cause such Rhnull/mod phenotypes. Parvovirus B19 infection causes transient red cell aplasia, leading to potentially severe anemia in patients with chronic hemolytic disorders.
Study design and methods: A patient with known, etiologically unclear mild chronic anemia presented with a syncopal event. Clinical and laboratory work-up, including targeted genetic analyses of RBC genes, was performed.
Results: The patient was severely anemic with moderate signs of hemolysis and evidence of impaired erythropoiesis. Immunohematological work-up identified a lack of Rh antigen expression. A homozygous c.1034G>A missense mutation in RHAG adequately explains this finding, as well as the chronic hemolysis. Parvovirus B19 was identified as causal for the acute aplastic crisis.
Discussion: This is the first clinical report of parvovirus B19-related red cell aplasia in a patient with the RHAG*01M.15 phenotype.
