Chronic Hemolytic Anemia

Two cases of congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia are reported. The patients were brothers and both showed severe metabolic defects in the erythrocytes, consisting of a low content of reduced glutathione, markedly abnormal reduced glutathione stability test, and a very low activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. These metabolic defects were also found in the erythrocytes from the mother but to a milder degree. While both children showed evidences of chronic hemolytic anemia, the mother was found to be healthy. This clinical discrepancy between mother and children is thought to be the result of the degree of the severity of the metabolic defects. The occurrence of the chronic hemolytic process in these patients in the absence of exposure to drugs indicates that the erythrocyte deficient in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase does not necessarily require the injurious effect of a drug to undergo hemolysis. In view of the above findings, it is suggested that reduced glutathione stability test and an assay of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase be performed in all instances where the diagnosis of congenital nonsphenocytic hemolytic anemia is made.

Chronic Hemolytic Anemia

To the Editor.— Human parvovirus is already known to be responsible for aplastic crisis in chronic hemolytic anemia,1 for erythema infectiosum or fifth disease,2 and for arthropathies,3,4 and it has recently been isolated from the serum of patients with vascular purpura.5 We report the case of Henoch-Schonlein purpura associated with human parvovirus infection. H. T., a 6-year-old girl, without any significant past history, was admitted on March 8, 1985, for joint pain and swelling (wrists, knees, ankles) associated with intense abdominal pain.

Experimentally Induced

Abstract Two severe hemolytic crises, in a month’s period, were induced by primaquine in a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficient Sardinian male. Young red blood cells tagged with Fe59 10 to 16 days earlier were destroyed in the second hemolytic episode. The implications of these experiments on the nature of drug-induced hemolysis in Caucasians are briefly discussed.
