Types of Anemia -. Normocytic - refers to size of RBC - normal-sized red blood cells, but less number of them. Normochromic - refers to hemoglobin concentration (color) - concentration of hemoglobin in the red blood cells is within the standard range. But you have less numbers of red blood cells.
Spherocytosis is an auto-hemolytic anemia (a disease of the blood) characterized by the production of spherocytes-red blood cells (RBCs), or erythrocytes, that are sphere-shaped, rather than bi-concave disk shaped. Spherocytes are found in hereditary spherocytosis and autoimmune hemolytic anemia.his is caused by a molecular defect in one or more of the proteins of the red blood cell cytoskeleton, including, spectrin, ankyrin, Band 3, or Protein 4.2. Because the cell skeleton has a defect, the blood cell contracts to its most surface-tension efficient and least flexible configuration, a sphere.
