Abstract
- We report two cases of pancytopenia in patients after recovering from a mild COVID-19, now presenting as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and aplastic anemia. These cases illustrate a common pathway whereby a viral trigger causes the clonal expansion of a hematological disorder. Although the association of both cases with COVID-19 is temporal and COVID-19 may be an incidental diagnosis, the growing evidence related to the hematological effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection highlights the need for further investigation into the hematological consequences of COVID-19, particularly in the post-pandemic era.
