Pancytopenia de to Sheehan's Syndrome
2013
Sheehan's syndrome is hypopituitarism caused by anterior pituitary necrosis due to hemorrhage leading to hypovolemic shock during or after childbirth. We present a case of a 32-year old lady who developed severe post partum hemorrhage after child-birth, eight years back. Since then she has progressively developed symptoms of anemia and now she has presented to us with pancytopenia. Anemia is the most common hematological disorder known to be associated with Sheehan's syndrome, however pancytopenia is rarely reported.
