Hereditary elliptocytosis is characterized by elliptically shaped erythrocytes in peripheral blood
and known to be transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, but in some cases, inherited recessively.
The clinical and hematologic expressions are variable range from healthy person with normal red cell
morphology to severe hemolytic anemia.
Recently, the authors experienced all three offsprings shown non-hemolytic hereditary el-
liptocytosis, whose parents were healthy persons with normal red cell morphology. It is the first
report of asymptomatic carrier state in hereditary elliptocytosis in korea since 1966. |
