Mega-dose methylprednisolone versus pulse methylprednisolone

摘要

Although the main hematologic findings, such as spherocytosis, polychromasia, anisopoikilocytosis, and reticulocytosis, etc. and Coombs test results were not given, the patient most likely had hemolytic anemia, for which he was given pulse methylprednisolone (MP) three days after intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy, which might also cause encephalopathy. However, the hematologic changes were not reported after pulse MP administration.
