摘要
Aberrant smooth muscle dystonia during hemolytic episodes in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is implicated in the symptoms of abdominal pain, dysphagia and erectile dysfunction. Here we report two PNH patients treated with the complement inhibitor, eculizumab. Complement inhibition has been sustained for over 2 years and results in resolution of intravascular hemolysis and amelioration of symptoms associated with smooth muscle contractions.
