[Monoclonal IgG lambda protein in a patient with hereditary spherocytosis].

Abstract

Three cases are presented of hereditary spherocytosis that occurred in one family. In one of those cases the presence of monoclonal IgG lambda protein was stated. This protein's level has not increased for 8 year of observation. The latest pathogenetic theories of hereditary spherocytosis are presented as well as the possibility of its coexistence with other diseases.
