Abstract:
:Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a rare but increasingly recognized complication of interferon-beta therapy, which can be associated with serious sequelae. We report on a 53-year-old woman with a longstanding history of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, who developed TMA after 15 years of high-dose treatment with subcutaneous interferon-beta-1a. The patient presented with headaches, an epileptic seizure, confusion, and arterial hypertension. Laboratory findings included thrombocytopenia and hemolytic anemia. Despite of severe clinical manifestations and pronounced laboratory abnormalities, therapy with corticosteroids, plasma exchange and rituximab was associated with a favorable outcome and return to her premorbid level of functioning.
