Familial erythrocytosis is an inherited condition characterised by an increased number of red blood cells (erythrocytes). The primary function of these cells is to carry oxygen from the lungs to tissues and organs throughout the body. Signs and symptoms of familial erythrocytosis can include headaches, dizziness, nosebleeds, and shortness of breath. The excess red blood cells also increase the risk of developing abnormal blood clots that can block the flow of blood through arteries and veins. If these clots restrict blood flow to essential organs and tissues (particularly the heart, lungs, or brain), they can cause life-threatening complications such as a heart attack or stroke. However, many people with familial erythrocytosis experience only mild signs and symptoms or never have any problems related to their extra red blood cells.

पॉलीसाइथेमिया रूब्रा वेरा
Polycythaemia rubra vera (PRV) is a myeloproliferative disorder, which means the bone marrow makes too many blood cells. It is also sometimes just called polycythaemia (PV). As these stem cells can develop into either red blood cells, platelets or white blood cells, if you have PRV, you may also have an abnormally high number of platelets and.

विस्तारित कार्डियोमायोपैथी
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a condition where the heart muscle becomes stretched and thin. The heart becomes enlarged (dilates) and pumps blood less well. Another possibility is that an unknown viral infection may be responsible. About one in four people with idiopathic dilated कार्डियोमायोपैथी have a familial (hereditary) form. This means that.
