Abstract
A 40 yr old white male with quinidine induced hemolytic anemia but no thrombocytopenia is described. Hemolysis was extravascular in nature and via the immune-complex mechanism. The quinidine antibody was an Ig[immunoglobulin]G that did not activate complement.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
