North Texas Research Forum 2025

This case report presents a 42-year-old female with heavy menstrual bleeding and syncope, initially diagnosed with AUB due to fibroids. The patient's hemoglobin (Hb) dropped from 11.8 g/dl to 7.3 g/dl within three days, despite multiple PRBC transfusions. Uterine artery embolization (UAE) was performed, but Hb levels continued to decline, prompting further investigation. Additional testing revealed normal iron studies, vitamin B12, and folic acid levels. The peripheral blood smear showed mild anisocytosis, and the ANA screen was negative.

Hydralazine Induced Anca Vasculitis, Justin Huang, Yasasvi Sabbineni, Sumanth Reddy, Hani Khair

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Hydralazine is a vasodilator commonly used for hypertension. Hydrazine is commonly used in patients who can not tolerate ACEs and ARBs, resistant hypertension, and during pregnancy. Hydralazine has also been implicated in ANCA-associated vasculitis and drug-induced lupus erythematosus. Vasculitis is the presence of inflammatory leukocytes in vessel walls, inflammation can cause loss of vessel integrity which can lead to bleeding and downstream tissue ischemia and necrosis. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (AΝCΑ)-associated vаsсulitiѕ (ΑΑV) is a necrotizing vаsсսlitis that does not substantially involve the deposition of immune complexes. AΑV predominantly affects small vessels and is associated with ANСΑ specific for myeloperoxidase (MPO-ΑNCΑ) …
