Pre-chemotherapy white blood cell depletion by therapeutic leukocytapheresis in leukemia patients: A single-institution experience.

abstract：:Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a recognized complication of malignant hypertension (HTN). Such patients have blood pressures > or = 200/140 mmHg but the condition is defined by the presence of papilledema and is frequently complicated by acute renal failure. Here we report two patients with severe HTN (systolic >...
