Fetal and Neonatal Hematopoiesis 

The embryo becomes too large for oxygenation by simple diffusion 

Erythropoiesis begins within the vessels of the yolk sac  At 8 weeks’ gestation, erythrocyte production shifts to the liver sinusoids (peaks at 4 months)  By 5 months’ gestation, erythrocyte production begins in the bone marrow • At delivery marrow is only significant hematopoiesis site

Acquired Disorders of Erythrocytes 

Iron deficiency anemia 

Most common blood disorder of infancy and childhood • Stored iron: greatest stores are present 4 to 8 weeks after birth • Dietary iron: needed after 16-20 weeks of age

 

Lack of iron intake or blood loss Manifestations • Irritability, decreased activity tolerance, weakness, and lack of interest in play

Acquired Disorders of Erythrocytes 

Acquired congenital hemolytic anemia 

Hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) • Alloimmune disease • Maternal antibody directed against fetal antigens • ABO incompatibility occurs in 20% to 25% of cases • Rh incompatibility occurs in less than 10% • Also termed erythroblastosis fetalis 

Presence of red cell precursors in the peripheral blood

11

Inherited Disorders of Erythrocytes 

13

Inherited Disorders of Erythrocytes 

Sickle cell disease 



Disorders characterized by the presence of an abnormal hemoglobin (Hb S) • Mutation causes valine to be replaced by glutamic acid Deoxygenation and dehydration cause the red cells to solidify and stretch into an elongated sickle shape

14

Inherited Disorders of Erythrocytes 

Sickle cell disease  

Once sickling begins, continues until Po2 returns to normal, then it ceases spontaneously Extent, severity, and clinical manifestations of sickling depend on the percentage of hemoglobin that is Hb S

15

Inherited Disorders of Erythrocytes 

Sickle cell disease 

Sickle cell trait • Child inherits Hb S from one parent and Hb A from another



Can result in: • Vasoocclusive crisis (thrombotic crisis), aplastic crisis, sequestration crisis, and hyperhemolytic crisis



Other forms • Sickle cell-thalassemia disease and sickle cell-Hb C disease
