Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis is a rare type of congenital hemolytic anemia reported only in American black children. We report the first two occurrences in Saudi children. This is an autosomal-recessive trait as proved by normal parents and two affected children. A pathogenetic and probably causal relationship with apparent elliptocytosis seems clear as three sibs have that condition.
遗传性热异形红细胞增多症是一种仅在美国黑人儿童中报道过的罕见先天性溶血性贫血类型。我们报告了沙特儿童中的首例两例病例。这是一种常染色体隐性性状,由正常父母和两个患病孩子证实。由于三个同胞患有明显的椭圆形红细胞增多症,与它的致病及可能的因果关系似乎很明显。
