Hereditary elliptocytosis, also known as ovalocytosis, is an inherited blood disorder in which an abnormally large number of the person's red blood cells are elliptical rather than the typical biconcave disc shape. Such morphologically distinctive erythrocytes are sometimes referred to as elliptocytes or ovalocytes.
Hereditary ovalocytosis is a rare condition passed down through families (inherited). The blood cells are oval-shaped instead of round. It is a form of hereditary elliptocytosis.
Feb 26, 2024 · Hereditary elliptocytosis, or hereditary ovalocytosis, is an inherited heterogeneous red blood cell (RBC) disorder characterized by elongated, oval, or elliptical-shaped RBCs on the peripheral blood smear.
Hereditary ovalocytosis is a rare condition passed down through families (inherited). The blood cells are oval-shaped instead of round. It is a form of hereditary elliptocytosis.
Hereditary spherocytosis and hereditary elliptocytosis are congenital red blood cell (RBC) membrane disorders that can cause a mild hemolytic anemia. Symptoms, generally milder in hereditary elliptocytosis, include variable degrees of anemia, jaundice, and splenomegaly.

Jan 25, 2024 · Hereditary elliptocytosis (HE) is a heterogeneous group of inherited red blood cell (RBC) disorders characterized by the presence of elongated, elliptically-shaped RBCs on the peripheral blood smear. Hemolytic anemia in these disorders ranges from absent to life-threatening.
Hereditary elliptocytosis (HE), also called hereditary ovalocytosis, is a heterogeneous group of inherited red blood cell (RBC) disorders characterized by the presence of elongated, oval, or elliptically shaped RBCs on the peripheral blood smear.
Hereditary elliptocytosis (HE) – HE (also called hereditary ovalocytosis) is a heterogeneous group of inherited erythrocyte disorders,… three broad mechanisms: decreased production of red blood cells (RBCs), increased loss of RBCs, or premature destruction (hemolysis) of RBCs.
