Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency and chronic haemolysis in an English family.

Three male members of an English family with chronic haemolytic anaemia due to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency are reported. The disease was symptomless in one adult, but crises, caused either by increased haemolysis or failure of marrow compensation, occurred in two children. They were typically precipitated by trivial infection. Two normal female members of the family were obligatory heterozygotes. A hitherto undescribed ;slow' variant of the enzyme was identified electrophoretically.

Septic portal vein thrombophlebitis: computed tomography appearance. Case report.

An unusual case of superinfected thrombosis of the portal and superior mesenteric veins is presented. Thrombus and gas within the portal system were accurately detected by CT. A necrotic segment of distal small bowel was believed to be responsible for the findings. Prompt recognition of this rare entity and rapid initiation of adequate therapy may aid in improving the outcome of this usually fatal condition.
