D000745	Anemia, Hemolytic, Congenital	Hemolytic anemia due to various intrinsic defects of the erythrocyte.

D013103	Spherocytosis, Hereditary	A group of familial congenital hemolytic anemias characterized by numerous abnormally shaped erythrocytes which are generally spheroidal. The erythrocytes have increased osmotic fragility and are abnormally permeable to sodium ions.	Hereditary Spherocytoses,Spherocytoses, Hereditary
D017487	Ankyrins	A family of membrane-associated proteins responsible for the attachment of the cytoskeleton. Erythrocyte-related isoforms of ankyrin attach the SPECTRIN cytoskeleton to a transmembrane protein (ANION EXCHANGE PROTEIN 1, ERYTHROCYTE) in the erythrocyte plasma membrane. Brain-related isoforms of ankyrin also exist.	Ankyrin
D041781	Jaundice, Obstructive	Jaundice, the condition with yellowish staining of the skin and mucous membranes, that is due to impaired BILE flow in the BILIARY TRACT, such as INTRAHEPATIC CHOLESTASIS, or EXTRAHEPATIC CHOLESTASIS.	Jaundice, Cholestatic,Jaundice, Mechanical,Cholestatic Jaundice,Mechanical Jaundice,Obstructive Jaundice
