Hereditary Spherocytosis in the Negro
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1957Congenital spherocytosis is a disease characterized by a varying degree of anemia, microspherocytes in the peripheral blood smear, splenomegaly, and increased hemolysis in hypotonic saline solutions. Although probably recognized1and treated2in the latter part of the 19th century, it was first accurately described as a clinical entity by Minkowski3in ...

A Splenunculus in Hereditary Spherocytosis
British Journal of Haematology, 1968Studies on a patient with hereditary spherocytosis and a functioning splenunculus are reported. An inverse relationship between splenic size and red cell survival was observed. Evidence was obtained which further verified that red cell survival in hereditary spherocytosis is not related to the shape or to the osmotic sensitivity of the cell and that ...

Hereditary spherocytosis and hemochromatosis
Annals of Hematology, 2002A 37-year-old male, splenectomized at the age of 1 year, was admitted to the ward with severe chest pain and signs of cardiogenic shock. Clinical investigations revealed the presence of both hemochromatosis and hereditary spherocytosis (HS). HLA typing showed A3,B7 and A24,B57 haplotypes and genetic analysis revealed homozygosity for the C282Y mutation.

Hereditary Spherocytosis And Polycythemia
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1965POLYCYTHEMIA that was clinically indistinguishable from polycythemia vera was observed in a patient who had splenectomy to palliate the anemia and hemolysis of hereditary spherocytosis. Polycythemia occurred 14 years after splenectomy, and the rubrocytes retained the spherocytic shape.

Hereditary spherocytosis in the elderly
The American Journal of Medicine, 1988Five patients with hereditary spherocytosis diagnosed in their seventh to ninth decades of life are presented. These patients are remarkable for absent or mild clinical manifestations of disease. Splenectomy is the recommended treatment for hereditary spherocytosis to avoid the complications of aplastic or hemolytic crisis.

HLA and Hereditary Spherocytosis
Vox Sanguinis, 1977Abstract. The HLA types of two families with hereditary spherocytosis (HS) suggest that the HS gene(s) may be linked with the HLA locus. If substantiated by further family studies, this linkage would place HS on chromosome 6.; Accepted: February 14 ...

Neonatal jaundice is commonly encountered in the neonatal period. Although it is mostly asymptomatic, severe cases may present as encephalopathy or kernicterus. Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is the most common cause of nonimmune hemolytic anemia and the third most common cause of kernicterus after glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase deficiency and ABO ...

Combination of hereditary elliptocytosis and hereditary spherocytosis
Clinical Genetics, 1974A girl with the combination of hereditary spherocytosis and hereditary elliptocytosis is presented. She had a moderately severe haemolytic anaemia. This was the result either of a summation of the clinical effects of the involved genes or of the mutual enhancement of any of genes involved in the two conditions.

A LARGE family study of hereditary spherocytosis (HS) has not been reported since Race's classic work in 1942. 1 Since then new hematologic methods, including Coombs' test, the radioactive chromium ( 51 Cr) erythrocyte survival test, the mechanical fragility test, and autohemolysis have become widely used.
