This triple insufficiency, known as pancytopenia, exposes the patient to progressive anemia, a major infectious risk due to neutropenia, and potentially severe bleeding due to thrombocytopenia. Aplastic anemia affects around 2 to 3 people per million inhabitants per year, with a bimodal age distribution (peak in young adults aged 15 to 25, second peak after 60). Without treatment, severe forms are rapidly fatal, but the therapeutic advances made since the 1970s with bone marrow transplants and immunosuppressive treatments have radically transformed the prognosis of this disease.\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2>What causes aplastic anemia?<\/h2>\n  <p>In the vast majority of cases, aplastic anemia is acquired and autoimmune in origin: aberrantly activated T lymphocytes recognize and destroy hematopoietic stem cells as if they were foreign to the body.

The main long-term concern is the risk of late clonal evolution, estimated at 10 to 20 % at 10 years, towards a myelodysplastic syndrome, acute myeloid leukemia or expansion of an HPN clone. This risk is linked to the genomic instability of stem cells that have survived autoimmune aggression and prolonged immunosuppressive therapy. Monitoring includes regular blood counts (every 3 to 6 months), annual flow cytometry for the HPN clone, and bone marrow karyotyping in the event of hematological abnormalities. Patients treated with allogeneic transplants benefit from specific post-transplant monitoring, including chronic GvHD, late infectious complications and conditioning side-effects.<\/p>\n\n  <h2>Consult at Clinique Omicron<\/h2>\n  <p>If you present with unexplained intense fatigue, repeated infections, a mucocutaneous hemorrhagic syndrome (petechiae, purpura, bleeding gums), or if a routine CBC reveals unexplained cytopenia, Clinique Omicron's physicians at its Quebec locations can initiate the first-line diagnostic workup and rapidly refer you to a hematologist for specialized management.
