Haematological studies in a case of oculocerebrorenal syndrome.
A four-year-old boy affected by oculocerebrorenal syndrome had moderate anaemia. The haematological study indicated hyperhaemolysis probably due to an extra-erythrocytic factor. It is suggested that this factor might be related to the metabolic disturbance of the disease, particularly the hyperchloraemic acidosis.
