We observed a case of hereditary spherocytosis who was a 4-month-old boy with the chief complaints of jaundice and pallor. Evidence of the same disease was also found in the patient` s father who had never been symptomatic. Diagnosis was made by presence of spherocytes in peripheral blood smear, osmotic fragility- test and autohemolysis test. A brief review of literatures was made.
