@IhabFathiSulima Feel free to reach out at my hospitalmail [email protected] if you - as most - are still unfamiliar with VEXAS and hyperinflammation related to this.

@ManualOMedicine Classic IHC signature 123-4-56. A histiocytocis (acc to WHO) that's not a histiocytosis (histiopathologists). A diseases that sometimes respond to myeloid- and sometimes to lymphoma-directed tx. And oftentimes to exceedingly costly targeted tx. #BPDCN!

@AaronGoodman33 Birbeck granules - pLCH. Primary Tx- stop smoking. May well be the sole disease manifestation. But Look for systemic LCH and some patients present with solid malignancies as well. If diagnosis is uncertain consider ddPCR/cfDNA for BRAF mutation

[Dr. Fassi @DrFassi]

@NicoGagelmann Difficult - can't figure this one out. Looks infectious to me but not aspergillus, mucor, pcp and probably not tb. Dont know histioplasmosis well enough? Not PAP. Not pLCH. Is it a #VEXAS pt have seen al sorts of weird scans wo infection in these patients??

[Dr. Fassi @DrFassi]

@AaronGoodman33 A very good point for the myelomadocs. @emiil will agree.

[Dr. Fassi @DrFassi]

@nihardesai7 @BrownJHM @NicoGagelmann The most provocative diagnosis these days would be that the patient is female. Let's hope for the that person that it has CML and not Ph' ALL.

You are a young #medicine resident, again 🤣

You are called in for a consult by your OBGYN colleagues, this happens a lot🤣

THROMBOCYTOPENIA (TCP) yet again !

But now we know the basics, rule out pseudoTCP etc. So that's done!

The patient is really thrombocytopenic

What now?

@AaronGoodman33 @EricLauDO @HistiocyteSoc The HS covers both #Histiocytoses and #hlh - we are pediatricians and adult physicians as well as basic scientists. We have an online ListServ for discussing difficult cases. online seminars -EBV-induced hyperinflammation next week!! and importantly we have great fun when we meet

[Dr. Fassi @DrFassi]

Not your typical Linkedin post but as many of you know I´m passionate about histiocytosis - and music.... And beginning to master one of the disciplines.

@AaronGoodman33 @EricLauDO @HistiocyteSoc Go check out https://t.co/1DgDxx0Eny we are a welcoming society. Will write to the meeting organizers - a session on how to use SoMe for Meded in rare diseases could be great. #1

Hey #medicine residents !!

Time to talk about EOSINOPHILS today. Not as common a consult as thrombocytopenia and anemia but important nonetheless.

A short 🧵 to touch upon all things eosinophilia 👇🏻
