Glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) deficiency caused by GPI gene mutations is a rare heterogenous condition that causes hereditary non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia (HNSHA). Patients who suffer from severe anemia may need more effective treatment. Here, clinical data and genetic testing results of two cases of HNSHA with GPI mutations treated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) were retrospectively analyzed.

Background And Aims: There is growing interest in the environmental impact of surgical procedures, yet more information is needed specifically regarding liver transplantation. This study aims to quantify the total greenhouse gas emissions, or carbon footprint, associated with adult whole-size liver transplantation from donors after brain death, including the relevant back-table graft preparation.
Methods: The carbon footprint was calculated retrospectively using a bottom-up approach.

Felty's syndrome (FS) is a rare and complex condition most commonly seen as a complication of longstanding rheumatoid arthritis (RA), characterized by a triad of RA, splenomegaly, and neutropenia. Diagnosing FS can be challenging due to its diverse clinical presentations and overlap with other hematologic and autoimmune conditions. We report a 47-year-old male with a history of severe anemia, recurrent blood transfusions, and a chronic leg ulcer.
