DEF

Épreuve in vitro destinée au diagnostic de l’hémoglobinurie paroxystique a frigore grâce au pouvoir hémolysant du plasma sur ses propres hématies.

OBS

Hémoglobinurie paroxystique a frigore [...] Le diagnostic biologique repose actuellement moins sur le caractère biphasique de l’hémolysine décrite par Donath et Landsteiner [se fixant à froid et activant le complément à 37 degrés C], que sur les caractéristiques du test de Coombs de type complément ou IgG complément, avec présence dans le sérum d’un taux élevé d’anticorps IgG reconnaissant l’antigène P.
