    Notes: Summary Anti-human-thymocyte globulin (AHTZG) was applied to prevent GvHD in clinical bone marrow transplantation. AHTZG produced by absorption with several cell preparations reacted specifically with T-lymphocyte populations and was no longer inhibitory to human CFUc and bone marrow growth in diffusion chambers. Marrow grafts of 14 patients with ALL were incubated in vitro with AHTZG and transferred to the recipients conditioned with antileukemic chemotherapy and total body irradiation of 1000 rad. Ten patients were transplanted after relaps, four patients during remission. The patients tolerated the marrow without side effects and a hemopoietic engraftment was seen in 12 cases. Three patients showed signs of GvHD on the skin, two of them showed later on also manifestations in the liver. In the other cases no GvHD could be detected. Five out of 14 patients are still alive between 144 and 964 days post transplantation in remission.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über den Fall einer letalen arzneimittelallergischen Thrombocytopenie nach Thomapyrin® berichtet, bei der sich hochtitrige thrombocytäre Antikörper in vitro nachweisen ließen. Die komplementbindenden Antikörper waren spezifisch gegen die Acetylsalicylsäurekomponente im Thomapyrin® gerichtet und inaktiv gegenüber dessen Phenacetinkomponente. Aus dem klinischen Bild ergaben sich Hinweise für kreuzreagierende allergische Reaktionen mehrerer Zellsysteme, besonders auch der hämopoetischen Vorstufen. Der deletäre Verlauf der Cytopenie wird aus der fortgesetzten Einnahme des Medikaments erklärt. Die Seltenheit dieser durch Aspirin® bedingten Thrombocytopenie — bisher wurden erst von einem Autor Antikörper immunologisch nachgewiesen — erschwert die Diagnose des lebensbedrohlichen Krankheitsbildes.
    Notes: Summary This case report deals with drug-induced allergic thrombocytopenia with lethal issue resulting from Thomapyrin®. It was possible to demonstrate the in vitro existence of a high antibody titer against platelets. The complement-binding antibodies were directed specifically against the acetylsalicylic acid, a component of Thomapyrin®, but did not react against its phenacetin component. The clinical picture pointed to cross-reactive allergic reactions of various cell systems, in particular of the hemopoietic precursor cells. The destructive course of the cytopenia can be explained by the continuous intake of the drug. The rare occurrence of this thrombocytopenia caused by Aspirin®—until now, antibodies have been immunologically proven by only one author—renders the diagnosis of this life-threatening disease quite difficult.
