Scandinavian Journal of Haematology, 1979
Erythrocytosis was found in 3 generations of an English family. The red cell mass was only moderately increased in some of the affected members but was accompanied by an unusually low plasma volume. Oxygen affinity of Hb was normal. Changes in serum and urinary erythropoietin showed an essentially normal pattern throughout a series of venesections ...

Marked erythrocytosis is frequently seen in hypoxia due to high altitudes and cyanotic congenital heart disease (Hurtado, Merino and Delgado, 1945) but is relatively uncommon in association with chronic respiratory failure (Baldwin, Cournand and Richards, 1949). This discrepancy has exercised a number of writers.

Erythrocytosis in a woman with hyperthyroidism prompted evaluation for other causes of an elevated hematocrit level. No underlying cause was identified, and the erythrocytosis resolved as the thyroid status returned to normal. The possibility of thyrotoxicosis should be considered in a patient with an elevated hematocrit value.

Primary Familial Erythrocytosis
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1967PRIMARY erythrocytosis or "benign familial polycythemia" is characterized by an increase in the hemoglobin concentration and the red blood cell count (RBC) due to an increase in total circulating red cell mass. The disease occurs in a familial pattern, is seen primarily in children, and follows a relatively benign course.

Erythrocytosis and Wilms' Tumour
Scandinavian Journal of Haematology, 1978A Wilms' tumour was diagnosed in an 18‐year‐old male patient with erythrocytosis. After radical excision of the tumour and postoperative irradiation and chemotherapy, the erythrocytosis disappeared and did not recur during a 2‐year observation period. The levels of erythropoiesis‐stimulating activity in serum and in the renal mass suggest the tumour as

The HIF Pathway and Erythrocytosis
Annual Review of Pathology: Mechanisms of Disease, 2011Because of the central role that red blood cells play in the delivery of oxygen to tissues of the body, red blood cell mass must be controlled at precise levels. The glycoprotein hormone erythropoietin (EPO) regulates red blood cell mass. EPO transcription, in turn, is regulated by a distinctive oxygen-sensing mechanism.

Bartter's syndrome and erythrocytosis
The American Journal of Medicine, 1973Abstract We describe a patient, known since 1960, with Bartter's syndrome and erythrocytosis. The diagnosis was made on the basis of hypokalemic alkalosis, hyperplasia of the juxtaglomerular apparatus, resistance to the presser effect of angiotensin, extremely high plasma renin activity and normal blood pressure.

Smoking as a Cause of Erythrocytosis
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1975Five smokers had erythrocyte masses sufficiently larger than normal to pose a problem in the differential diagnosis of polycythemia. Evaluation excluded lung disease, shunt physiology, hemoglobin with increased oxygen affinity, erythropoietin-producing tumor, renal disease, or polycythemia rubra vera as the primary cause of erythrocytosis in these ...
