Hematologic disease

Hematologic diseases are disorders which primarily affect the blood.

Classification of hematologic diseases

 * Hemoglobinopathies (congenital abnormality of the hemoglobin molecule or of the rate of hemoglobin synthesis)
 * Sickle-cell disease
 * Thalassemia
 * Methemoglobinemia
 * Anemias (lack of red blood cells or hemoglobin)
 * Iron deficiency anemia
 * Megaloblastic anemia
 * Vitamin B 12 deficiency
 * Pernicious anemia
 * Folate deficiency
 * Hemolytic anemias (destruction of red blood cells)
 * Genetic disorders of RBC membrane
 * Hereditary spherocytosis
 * Hereditary elliptocytosis
 * Genetic disorders of RBC metabolism
 * Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD)
 * Pyruvate kinase deficiency
 * Immune mediated hemolytic anaemia (direct Coombs test is positive)
 * Autoimmune hemolytic anemia
 * Warm antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia
 * Idiopathic
 * Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
 * Evans' syndrome (antiplatelet antibodies and haemolytic antibodies)
 * Cold antibody autoimmune hemolytic anemia
 * Idiopathic cold hemagglutinin syndrome
