Purpose : The purposes of this study were to elucidate the diagnostic significance of mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration(MCHC) for various kinds of hemolytic anemia, the mechanism of elevated MCHC in hereditary spherocytosis(HS). Methods : The subjects consisted of 39 cases of HS(group 1), 31 cases of intravascular hemolysis (IH) such as DIC, snake bite or hemolytic uremic syndrome(group 3), and sex...
