Sudden death following white cell transfusion in a premature infant.

A 1,700-g, 31 weeks' gestational age infant developed early onset Group B streptococcal septicemia associated with shock and respiratory distress. The infant was treated with antibiotics, exchange transfusion, and white cell transfusion. The infant improved, and then acutely deteriorated following the third white cell transfusion. Cause of death was presumed to be pulmonary sequestration of white cells or anaphylaxis.

Antirifampicin antibodies in acute rifampicin-associated renal failure.

5 patients with acute renal failure (3 with thrombopenia and hemolysis) induced by the reintroduction of rifampicin are described. No correlation was found between the severity of clinical manifestations and the total dose taken by the patients. In all but 1 patient, antirifampicin antibodies were detected. Antibodies suggested to be of the IgM class were detected in all 3 patients with hematological disorders. The pattern of non-specific acute tubular necrosis found in the 2 biopsied patients, indistinguishable from that of ischemic origin, raised the possibility of a vascular-mediated damage. In 3 patients, the possibility of a triggering immunoallergic mechanism is discussed.
