Özet
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a clonal stem cell disease that manifests with chronic intravascular hemolysis, thrombosis, and bone marrow failure. Various degrees of cytopenias accompany the disease. Although laboratory and clinical findings are similar, the disease may show different courses and require different treatments. Herein, we report two different courses of PNH with similar clinical and laboratory findings.
