    Author: Rappaport ES, Quick G, Ransom D, Helbert B, Frankel LS.
    Journal: South Med J; 1989 Feb; 82(2):247-51. PubMed ID: 2536960.
    Abstract:
    We have reported a case of aplastic crisis occurring in an 11-year-old black boy with occult hereditary spherocytosis. An etiologic diagnosis of human parvovirus (HPV) B19 infection was confirmed serologically. The Coulter Model S + IV proved useful for both diagnosis and treatment monitoring through serial histograms. The relationship of HPV infection and aplastic crisis is discussed.
