ABSTRACT
145 patients were diagnosed to have hereditary spherocytosis (HS) over a period of 25 years. Jaundice (66.9%), fever (65.5%), weakness (44.8%), and abdominal pain (35.8%) were the commonest complaints. 94.5% had splenomegaly (JP-17 cm) and 71.7% had hepatomegaly (JP-6 cm). Spherocytes were detected in the peripheral smears of all patients at presentation on careful examination. 67 patients had been investigated elsewhere and spherocytes missed in 86.6%. Gall stones were seen in 20 of the 54 patients investigated. Family history suggestive of HS was available in only 16.6% of cases, whereas examination and investigations revealed HS in almost all families. Splenectomy was done in all symptomatic patients. In the 39 patients followed up for 1-9 years after splenectomy.
