Haematologica. 2009 Aug;94(8):1039-41. doi: 10.3324/haematol.2009.010041.

Abstract

Hereditary stomatocytosis describes a wide spectrum of autosomal dominantly inherited hemolytic disorders in which the basal red cell membrane cation permeability is increased. In this perspective article, Drs. Flatt and Bruce summarize our current knowledge in the field. See related article on page 1049.
