Analysis of clinical characteristics and treatment efficacy in two pediatric cases of ANKRD26-related thrombocytopenia

ANKRD26-related thrombocytopenia (ANKRD26-RT or THC2, MIM 188 000), an autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia, is unresponsive to immunosuppressive therapy and susceptible to hematological malignancies. A large number of pediatric patients are diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) every year; however, thrombocytopenia of genetic origin is often missed. Extensive characterization of ANKRD26-RT will help prevent missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. Furthermore, identification of ANKRD26-RT will help in the formulation of an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan. In our study, we report cases of two Chinese pediatric patients with ANKRD26-RT and analyze their clinical characteristics, gene mutations, and treatment modalities. Both patients were 1-year-old and presented with mild bleeding (World Health Organization(WHO) score grade 1), different degrees of platelet reduction, normal mean platelet volume, and megakaryocyte maturation impairment not obvious. Genetic tests revealed that both patients had ANKRD26 gene mutations.Patient 1 had a mutation c.-140C>G of the 5' untranslated region (UTR), and patient 2 had a mutation of c.-127A>T of 5'UTR. Both patients were treated with eltrombopag, and the treatment was no response, with no adverse reactions.
