[Congenital spherocytosis in children].
The clinical course and effects of treatment of congenital spherocytosis (CS) were analyzed in 28 children. In 10 cases the disease ran a severe clinical course. Jaundice, anaemia, and splenomegaly were the most frequent clinical signs which were significantly intensified during haemolytic crises. In 14 cases splenectomy was performed, obtaining in all children a regression of jaundice and anaemia. Before the operation two children were vaccinated with Pneumo 23. In asplenic children Debecillin was prophylactically used. Serious infectious complications were observed only in one patient.
