Density, heterogeneity and deformability of red cells as markers of clinical severity in hereditary spherocytosis

Haematologica, 2020
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) originates from defective anchoring of the cytoskeletal network to the transmembrane protein complexes of the red blood cell (RBC).

Save or Remove the Accessory Spleen in Patient Candidates to Splenectomy for Lymphoproliferative Disorders: Rational and Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Sparing or removing the accessory spleen (AS) in patients undergoing diagnostic splenectomy for lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) is an unsolved issue rarely considered. Usually, a healthy AS can be preserved. Reporting a case of our own, this paper aims to review existing literature and propose a tailored approach.

Simultaneous gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy and laparoscopic splenectomy as a surgical option for hereditary spherocytosis in a child: A case report

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2017
For hereditary spherocytosis complicated by cholelithiasis, cholecystectomy is simultaneously performed with splenectomy. However, jaundice promptly disappears after removing the spleen, and the risk for recurrent cholelithiasis decreases in majority of ...

Risk of hereditary spherocytosis misdiagnosis due to limited effective diagnostic methods

Revista Cubana de Medicina Militar
Introduction: Hereditary spherocytosis is a prevalent congenital hemolytic erythrocyte membranopathy. Laboratory diagnosis is traditionally based on erythrocyte morphology, yet 20% of cases may lack visible spherocytes, leading to misdiagnosis.

An overview of hereditary spherocytosis and the curative effects of splenectomy

Frontiers in Physiology
Hereditary spherocytosis is a common hemolytic anemia with different severity. The causes of hereditary spherocytosis are mutations in genes that encode red blood cell (RBC) membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, including ankyrin-1, Band 3 (or AE1), α ...
