One haemolytic anaemia may hide another: Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria masquerading as Plasmodium falciparum infection [PDF]
Background: Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, genetic and acquired haematologic disease that causes complement-mediated intravascular haemolytic anaemia, thrombosis and bone marrow failure.

Thrombosis and paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria
Thrombosis is the most common, most feared complication of paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH), a striking example of the effect of uncontrolled complement activation and haemolysis on vascular biology and haemostasis.

Pharmacological Therapies in Paroxysmal Nocturnal Haemoglobinuria: Focus on Complement Inhibition. [PDF]
Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) is an ultra-rare acquired genetic stem cell disorder based on a mutation in the PIGA gene that results in susceptibility of resulting blood cells to complement-mediated intravascular haemolysis (IVH).
