Bone marrow aplasia after high voltage electrical injury
Burns, Including Thermal Injury
|February 1, 1984
Abstract:
This report describes a patient with severe high voltage electrical injury in whom bone marrow aplasia developed on post-burn day 3. In addition to bone marrow aplasia alterations suggesting disintegration of leucocytes and reduced nitro-blue tetrazolium reductase activity pointing to functional disorders have been observed. Beyond the effect of the extensive burns to depress the bone marrow the possibility of an additional similar action of the high voltage electrical injury is raised.

01:22Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants
Bone marrow transplant is a potential cure for several diseases, including cancer and specific genetic disorders. Notably, this procedure is applicable for patients suffering from aplastic anemia, certain types of leukemia, severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, sickle-cell disease, and certain cancers.

01:25Secondary Spinal Cord Injury llI: Pathophysiology
Early Ischemia and Ionic ImbalanceWithin minutes of spinal cord injury, a secondary cascade begins, progressing over hours to weeks. Vascular damage reduces blood flow, causing ischemia and mitochondrial dysfunction. ATP depletion leads to ion pump failure, membrane depolarization, sodium influx, potassium efflux, and water accumulation, resulting in cellular swelling. Increased intracellular calcium further disrupts mitochondria and accelerates cellular injury.Excitotoxicity and Neuronal...
