Aplastic Anemia Induced by Parvovirus B19 Infection in an Immunocompetent Adult: A Case Report and Literature Review
A 24-year-old male presented with epistaxis and gingival bleeding, physical examination revealed pallor and purpuric spots on the left upper limb. Laboratory findings showed pancytopenia. As part of the etiological workup for pancytopenia, a bone marrow aspirate was performed, revealing moderately cellular marrow with rare megakaryocytes and intranuclear inclusions in proerythroblasts. Parvovirus B19 testing in the bone marrow was conducted via nucleic acid extraction followed by PCR.
