Note: Information on Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia may be included because these diseases are similar hemolytic anemias.
The First Published PKD Article
An important part of the Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency history includes the first scholarly work that was published 60 years ago. It identifies PKD as a genetic, hemolytic anemia.
