In such a state ...
Various diseases can lead to transfusion-dependent anemia, most notably myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and thalassemia. [4] [5] Due to the number of diseases that can cause transfusion-dependent anemia, diagnosing it is more complicated. Transfusion dependence occurs when an average of more than 2 units of blood transfused every 28 days is ...
Transfusion hemosiderosis can cause permanent damage to tissues that may lead to death. [2] Tissue damage can remain even after chelation therapy. [2] Outcomes are usually worse in patients who require blood transfusions compared to those who can have alternative therapies. [2] Cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmia are often a cause of death. [1]
A treatment used sometimes is endoscopic band ligation. [27] In 2010, a team of Japanese surgeons performed a "novel endoscopic ablation of gastric antral vascular ectasia". [10] The experimental procedure resulted in "no complications". [10] Relapse is possible, even after treatment by argon plasma coagulation and progesterone. [21]

Transfusion hemosiderosis [1] Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis; Transfusional diabetes [2] [3] Organs affected: Hemosiderin deposition in the lungs is often seen after diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, which occurs in diseases such as Goodpasture's syndrome, granulomatosis with polyangiitis, and idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis.
In addition, given the short life span of transfused platelets, transfusions are needed regularly, increasing the overall risk of death of the baby. If intrauterine platelet transfusions are performed, they are generally repeated weekly (platelet lifespan after transfusion is approximately 8 to 10 days).
Von Willebrand disease [8] Joint damage, potentially with severe pain and even destruction of the joint and development of arthritis: Hemophilia [7] Von Willebrand disease [8] Retinal bleeding: Acute leukemia [5] Transfusion transmitted infection, from blood transfusions that are given as treatment. Hemophilia [7] Adverse reactions to clotting ...
