Secondary Sea-blue Histiocytosis Derived from Niemann-Pick Disease

Abstract: Sea-blue histiocytosis is a rare disorder seen in patients with lipid metabolic or ceroid storage diseases. Sea-blue histiocytes are ceroid-laden macrophages detectable by May-Giemsa staining. We report a case of a 28-year-old woman diagnosed with Niemann-Pick disease at 2 or 3 years of age. To confirm this diagnosis, we examined her bone marrow, which revealed scattered foci containing aggregates of foamy macrophages. May-Giemsa staining identified blue-staining foamy macrophages, referred to as sea-blue hist… Show more

“…27,28 Sea-blue histiocytes, although relatively rare, have been reported in a variety of conditions ranging from the more commonly cited Niemann-Pick disease, to an effect of total parenteral nutrition including fat emulsions, to a variety of hematologic malignancies including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, light chain deposition disease, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and MDS. [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] It has also been previously reported in SLE. 9 We found SBHs relatively rarely, in only 6 cases total, all of which were CVD.…”

“…In 1970, Silverstein et al have described the syndrome of sea-blue histiocytes, characterized the presence of large foamy macrophagic cells in the bone marrow, spleen, and sometimes liver and lungs (5,6). SBH can be seen in different diseases of which hematological involvement such as chronic myeloid leukemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and myelodysplastic syndromes and metabolic involvement such as NPD and Gaucher diseases (6)(7)(8)(9). SBH is differentiated from these diseases with sphingomyelinase defficiency and clinical appearance (7).…”
