An adolescent with hereditary spherocytosis who presented with splenic infarction.

Lara Jones1, Zafer Refai1, Mike Linney1.   

Abstract

A 16-year-old male patient with known hereditary spherocytosis presented with a 4-day history of chest pain and lethargy. On admission, he had a low-grade fever and was grossly anaemic; examination revealed splenomegaly. An ultrasound scan confirmed splenomegaly with areas of splenic infarction. Subsequent tests suggested possible Epstein-Barr virus infection. The patient recovered well and had a functional spleen on discharge. This case report presents an unusual complication of isolated hereditary spherocytosis. 2015 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
