Conditions with this feature

Elliptocytosis 3
MedGen UID:
357139
Concept ID:
C1866810
Disease or Syndrome
Hereditary elliptocytosis-3 (EL3) is a hemolytic disorder characterized by the presence of elliptical erythrocytes and resulting in some cases in hemolytic anemia (summary by Qualtieri et al., 1997). For a general description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of hereditary elliptocytosis (HE), see EL1 (611804).
Red cell phospholipid defect with hemolysis
MedGen UID:
357960
Concept ID:
C1867339
Disease or Syndrome
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2
MedGen UID:
483742
Concept ID:
C3489789
Disease or Syndrome
The phenotypic spectrum of ATP8B1 deficiency ranges from severe through moderate to mild. Severe ATP8B1 deficiency is characterized by infantile-onset cholestasis that progresses to cirrhosis, hepatic failure, and early death. Although mild-to-moderate ATP8B1 deficiency initially was thought to involve intermittent symptomatic cholestasis with a lack of hepatic fibrosis, it is now known that hepatic fibrosis may be present early in the disease course. Furthermore, in some persons with ATP8B1 deficiency the clinical findings can span the phenotypic spectrum, shifting over time from the mild end of the spectrum (episodic cholestasis) to the severe end of the spectrum (persistent cholestasis). Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is common across the phenotypic spectrum.
