Congenital erythrocytosis [PDF]
AbstractErythrocytosis, or increased red cell mass, may be labeled as primary or secondary, depending on whether the molecular defect is intrinsic to the red blood cells/their precursors or extrinsic to them, the latter being typically associated with elevated erythropoietin (EPO) levels.

"The long journey of unexplained erythrocytosis". Erythrocytosis due to high oxygen affinity hemoglobinopathy - hemoglobin variant Little Rock (HBB: c.432C>A) - A report of a Swiss Family and review of the literature. [PDF]
The differential diagnosis of erythrocytosis is complex, involving a tailored algorithm. Congenital causes are rare and such patients commonly face a long journey looking for diagnosis.

High oxygen affinity hemoglobin (HOAH) variants are rare hemoglobinopathies sometimes associated with congenital erythrocytosis. Patients with HOAH are usually asymptomatic and are incidentally discovered when unexplained erythrocytosis is observed in ...

Myomatous erythrocytosis syndrome: A case series
Uterine leiomyomas are tumor-associated causes of secondary erythrocytosis. Ectopic erythropoietin production by fibroid smooth muscles has been proposed and demonstrated in the literature.

Angiogenic activity in the sera of patients with post-kidney transplant erythrocytosis
Post-kidney transplant erythrocytosis (PTE) is one of the hematological complications in the renal transplant patients. While its pathogenesis still remains to be elucidated completely, a number of therapies are available for the management of PTE.

gene possibly associated with erythrocytosis [PDF]
In secondary erythrocytosis, the elevated red cell count is powered by factors outside the erythroid compartment, for instance by raised erythropoietin (EPO) synthesis based on congenital defects of the oxygen-sensing pathway.

Medical dilemmas – erythrocytosis [PDF]
Erythrocytosis is defined not only by an increase in the erythrocyte count, hemoglobin concentration, and hematocrit value, but also by the occurrence of specific symptoms, the intensity and frequency of which depend on the character of the initial ...
